That's part of the message we're trying to get out. Now in 48 cities, more sites join the effort each year to increase funding of ongoing research. Funds generated also provide services and support for breast cancer patients and their families through local outreach programs. This year, the projection is that figure will at least double. It's all about providing information and increasing awareness that can ultimately save lives.
Walkers collect pledge funds prior to walk day.
Funds are given to volunteers at registration Saturday morning. Individual walkers and smaller teams are just as important and welcome. It's all of us working together that will eradicate breast cancer.
