Barb Michaud CSVI Executive Director is the face and passion behind Pinktober. She launched Pinktober ten years ago after a conversation with the General Manager, Kris Macken, at Mahogany Run to pay it forward. Michaud, a breast cancer survivor (or whom she likes to coin “cancer warriors”), like many Virgin Islanders who can’t afford the cost of cancer, reached out to CSVI for financial support & resources to guide her along her cancer journey.
