The Pink Pilates Trust is a registered charitable trust working to improve the quality of life of New Zealand women affected with breast cancer. It was established in 2006, and is dedicated to fundraising for the Pink Pilates programme.

The aim of the Trust is to make the Pink Pilates programme as accessible and affordable as possible to all women diagnosed with Breast Cancer.

The Pink Pilates Trust is proud to be able to provide subsidised rates for all women who are within two years of their diagnosis. For women who meet this criteria, the cost for each of the 10 sessions in the Pink Pilates programme will be $10 per session. The rest of the costs of the programme are covered by the Pink Pilates Trust.

The Pink Pilates Trust raises funds through fundraising activities and events, donations and T-shirt sales. Proceeds raised contribute to the subsidised funding we offer participants of the Pink Pilates programme.

In addition, funds raised have also been donated to other breast cancer initiatives. For example in 2005, $16,000 was raised and donated to the Louise Perkins Foundation - a fantastic organisation that also aims to help women with breast cancer lead more positive lives and offers services targeting the mind, body and spirit.
