The White House became the "Pink House" Sunday in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

First Lady Dr. Jill Biden, a longtime advocate for survivors of and awareness of the disease, tweeted a picture of the event, which began in 2008 and honors "the loved ones we've lost, those who are still fighting, and those who have survived breast cancer," she said.

The First Lady also recognized the significance of the month with an appearance at Sunday night's Dallas Cowboys-Philadelphia Eagles game.

"It's a special night for this Philly girl — I get to cheer on my @Eagles alongside these brave cancer survivors and their families," she wrote. "Thank you @NFL for raising awareness through Crucial Catch. We all have a role to play in ending cancer as we know it. #CancerMoonshot"
