MARLBOROUGH – Hologic, Inc., a women’s health company in Marlborough, and Grammy award-winning and Oscar-nominated artist and entrepreneur Mary J. Blige announced the launch of the “Good Morning Gorgeous” sweepstakes.
The sweepstakes is an element of Hologic’s role as presenting sponsor of Blige’s “Good Morning Gorgeous” tour, which is presented in partnership with The Black Promoters Collective (BPC) and will take place September 17 through October 29, 2022.
There are no stops in Massachusetts.
The sponsorship is the latest effort from Hologic to reinforce the importance of preventive care and Well Woman Exams. In addition to the sweepstakes, Hologic has also produced a public service announcement featuring Blige, which will be shown throughout each concert venue prior to the show, sharing more about what it means for women to make their health a priority.

The company will also work with Blige during the tour to shine a light on the need to increase access to screening for all women, including those who live in communities in need of resources like 3D mammography.
“Over the past two years, we’ve been proud to partner with Mary on a number of initiatives to encourage women to prioritize life-saving screenings,” said Steve MacMillan, the company’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We’re thrilled to extend our partnership as the presenting sponsor of the 2022 ‘Good Morning Gorgeous’tour as it’s a powerful way to reach millions of women — both online and in-person — with our message about the critical importance of screenings.”
