Our Team
Committee Members:
Shirley Bradley, President
Shirley Bradley has joined Pink Out For Hope, Inc. assisting with media relations. A lifetime resident of Cheatham County, she is married and has one daughter.
Shirley was diagnosed with early stage breast cancer in July 2016, less than a year after retiring from The Ashland City Times newspaper. Her mother, at that time, was a 19-year breast cancer survivor and that gave her hope and determination to fight the disease.
Shirley has a strong desire to reach out to women in Cheatham County and stress to them that early detection can make a world of difference in the outcome, if diagnosed with breast cancer. Great strides have been made in the treatment of breast cancer and she is proud to be associated with an organization that supports research.
Cheatham County has lost many women to breast cancer; among those were young professionals and mothers with children. Pink Out For Hope, Inc. will provide Shirley the platform to connect with the community and encourage residents to come together to help save lives and support those in our area who are living with breast cancer.
Watch on social media and in print publications for events this year where you can support the efforts of Pink Out For Hope, Inc.
Tammy Henley, Secretary and Treasurer
I moved to Cheatham County in 1993, when me and my husband opened our auto repair business. We have two wonderful children, Austin and Julie. I have been an accountant for 17 years and am honored to use my knowledge for Pink Out For Hope as treasurer. In June of 2022, I went for my routine mammogram and was diagnosed with breast cancer. I underwent a double mastectomy in December and by the grace of God, was blessed to not have to undergo chemo or radiation. I never would have thought this diagnosis would change my life in the ways it has, some good and some bad. I have been connected with several women along the way, from those beginning their journey to survivors. It is my passion to provide love and support to anyone going through this battle. No one should go through this journey alone and I am so grateful for this opportunity to serve others through Pink Out For Hope.
Paula Lee, Patient Assistance Coordinator
I am a life long resident of Cheatham County and mother to an amazing son, Garyn. My passion has always been serving and helping others, especially my community. I graduated from Austin Peay State University with a BSN degree. After working as a Registered Nurse for a few years, I obtained my Masters Degree in Nursing from Vanderbilt University. In 2001, I began my career as one of the first Family Nurse Practitioners in Cheatham County. For 14 years, I loved caring for my patients and being an active member in the Pleasant View Community. In March of 2014, I was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia. I underwent extensive chemotherapy treatments and remained in remission until June of 2015. I relapsed with the same AML and underwent a stem cell transplant from an unrelated donor. During this difficult time, my family and I were blessed to have unconditional, overwhelming, immeasurable love and support from our friends, family, and community. By the grace of God, I remain in remission today. A lot has changed in my life, but my love and passion to help, care for, and serve others and has not changed. Giving back, offering hope, and serving others in their time of need is an honor and privilege. I thank God for blessing me with an amazing community. I pray I can bless those in my community as much as they have blessed me.
Kendra Coveney, Events and Social Media Coordinator
Pink Out for Hope is proud to welcome Kendra Coveney as its new Events and Social Media Coordinator. Born in Fredericksburg, Virginia, Kendra attended Barton College in North Carolina, where she studied Biological Science. Although she currently resides in Clarksville, Tennessee, she is no stranger to Cheatham County. For the past eight years, she has worked in the area and currently serves as the Branch Manager at Legends Bank in Pleasant View. As the wife of a recently retired Army veteran, Kendra has called Tennessee home for much of her family’s 26-year military journey. Her commitment to community involvement and service has only grown throughout the years. Kendra is not a cancer survivor herself, but she is a passionate advocate for cancer awareness and support. Having witnessed several family members undergo treatment for breast cancer—and after losing her father to cancer in 2022—she feels a deep personal connection to the mission of Pink Out for Hope. Being part of an organization dedicated to raising awareness and supporting those affected by cancer is especially meaningful to her. In her role at Legends Bank, Kendra values the importance of giving back to the community. Supporting, engaging with, and helping to grow the local community are core to both her personal and professional values. When offered the opportunity to join the board of Pink Out for Hope, Kendra eagerly accepted, excited to contribute to such a worthy and impactful organization.
