Toronto's biggest soiree invites guests to shake, strut and shimmy to the beat in support of Rethink Breast Cancer at the 16th annual Boobyball fundraiser on Friday, October 13 at 8 p.m. at REBEL (11 Polson St.). Party-goers will be transported back to the 80s and 90s and experience an evening filled with pink cocktails and scrumptious treats.

This year's fundraiser themed Let's Get Physical, aims to promote and celebrate regular physical activity - whether it's shimmying in the most luscious lycra or having an aerobic dance-off to the sickest beat - which helps reduce a woman's lifetime risk of developing breast cancer.

Tickets for Toronto's Boobyball: Get Physical are available for purchase at www.Boobyball.com.

Want to do more to raise funds for Rethink Breast Cancer? Hop on a totally rad retro pink bike at TOPSHOP's 'Get Physical' lounge at Boobyball. Every time you sweat it out, TOPSHOP will donate another $1 to Rethink.

Boobyball was launched in 2002 by a group of dedicated young women in support of their friend Sarah O'Regan who, at just 23 years old, was diagnosed with aggressive, advanced breast cancer. Fast forward 16 years, and Boobyball is now one of the most coveted and high profile fundraising events for young philanthropists in Toronto, Calgary, Ottawa and Winnipeg, and Sarah is a thriving mother of three. Since 2002, Boobyball has raised over $4.2 million dollars for Rethink Breast Cancer's work for young women concerned about and affected by breast cancer.

Rethink Breast Cancer's mission is to empower young people worldwide who are concerned about and affected by breast cancer. Rethink is the first ever Canadian charity to bring bold, relevant awareness to the 40s and under crowd; foster a new generation of young and influential breast cancer supporters; infuse sass and style into the cause; and, most importantly, respond to the unique needs of young women going through it. By taking a breakthrough approach to all aspects of breast cancer - education, resources, advocacy, community building, and fundraising - Rethink is thinking differently about breast cancer.
