Just passing this along.

This YouTube segment was created,directed and "choreographed" at a hospital in Portland, OR by a Medline glove division employee as a fundraiser for breast cancer awareness. This was all her idea to help promote their new pink gloves. Who knows how she got so many employees, doctors and patients to participate, but it started to really catch on and they all had a lot of fun doing it. When the video gets 1 million hits, Medline will be making a huge contribution to the hospital, as well as offering free mammograms for the community.It's an easy and great way to donate to a wonderful cause, and who hasn't been touched by breast cancer?



They were at 853,363 hits when I posted this, hopefully the Browncoats can help them reach their goal of 1,000,000.

Hello,

Watching this won't help anyone, but as someone who has worked on amateur film projects before, I consider this video quite remarkable.

I hope you enjoy it as I have.

That was cool, all one long running shot... I wonder how long they took to get it that perfect...

Like the first one better 'cause it shows ordinary, everyday people in their jobs doing something MORE than their jobs. But any time I see people getting together and doing something social, coordinated... like the rollerblade flashmobs in Paris



just to be that way, or for a cause, or to have fun ... it makes my heart happy. Thanks for reminding me that people still aren't droids. You made my day.

Pretty cool. Only way it could be cooler is if they were all wearing browncoats.

Veteran, if this is what you said, and (I wondered too) as Anthony says, watching it here does nobody any good, what's the LINK so we can go add a "hit"? If I'm reading right, that's what they're trying to get, isn't it? Correct me if I'm wrong.

And yes, it looked like they were having a BALL, and it's a great cause!

Nikki,

Sorry about that. When I paste the link it automatically puts the video in the post. Just copy and paste into your browser location bar then remove the spaces. Best I can do.

Thanx! Will do; can we go more than once? Most places don't keep track of who clicks on the site, so you can go back as many times as you want.
