Shared purpose has the power to drive lasting impact. We are honored to receive the 2026 Pink Ribbon Champion Award from the American Cancer Society, recognizing Blue Owl's work on the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer campaign. From the Big Hoot ping-pong tournament and Central Park walk, to t-shirt sales at the Blue Owl Olympics, colleagues across Blue Owl came together to raise funds to support critical breast cancer research, patient services, and access to lifesaving screenings. Led by the Institutional Capital team, these efforts demonstrate the power of collaboration in driving progress toward a future without breast cancer. Thank you to everyone who generously supported this important cause.
