Born from the spirit of Meeting of the Minds, Skippin & Sippin, Inc. is bringing our PHamily together to provide hope, support, and meaningful assistance to those facing breast cancer.
HER DREAM. OUR JOURNEY.
THANKS TO OUR MERMAID SISTER
In 2023, Skippin & Sippin was born from the vision and persistence of one of our most cherished phriends, the late Susan M. Radomski— our beloved Mermaid Sister.
As Meeting of the Minds found its new home in Gulf Shores, Susan was determined that the beloved breast cancer walk cherished by so many Parrot Heads would continue. She believed our Parrot Head PHamily had an opportunity to give back to the community that so warmly welcomed us as we PHlocked to Alabama.
Inspired by Susan's unwavering passion and generous spirit, that dream became a reality.
What began as a single 5K & PHun Walk/Run has grown into Skippin & Sippin, Inc., carrying Susan's dream forward through charitable initiatives, community partnerships, volunteerism, and future patient assistance programs that provide hope, meaningful assistance, and lasting support to those facing breast cancer.
EVERY STEP WE TAKE CARRIES SUSAN’S DREAM FORWARD.
phamily with a purpose.
PARADISE. PHRIENDS. PHILANTHROPY.
Inspired by the spirit of Meeting of the Minds and the values of community, philanthropy, and service exemplified by Parrot Heads in Paradise (PHIP), Inc., we exist to provide hope, meaningful assistance, and lasting support to breast cancer patients throughout Gulf Shores, Alabama, its surrounding communities, and Parrot Head members in good standing nationwide who are facing breast cancer.
Guided by compassion and driven by purpose, we fulfill our mission through our annual Skippin & Sippin 5K & PHun Run, Parrot Heads on Brasway, community partnerships, volunteerism, and future patient assistance programs. We're committed to carrying Susan's dream forward by making a lasting difference and leaving the world a better place.
