Event Information

6th Annual
Walk to Bust Cancer
OCT 24,2021
 



Please join us for the 6th Annual Walk to Bust Cancer!  Last year was an amazing demonstration of the love and support our community has for helping others. 


 We are excited to welcome walkers and supporters back to Fort Hunt Park this year along with our virtual walkers!


We recognize that we have gained suporters across these United States who were thrilled to join us "virtually" for our month long "Walk to Bust Cancer" last year.  This year we offer TWO OPTIONS:   Walk with us on October 24 at the park or pick your day wherever you are. 


Another event we want to carry forward will be  the "Angel Wings" travelling around the community, raising awareness and supporting the Walk to Bust Cancer fund raising.  The Angel Wing Challenge is back. Schedules will be updated at  http://www.walktobustcancer.org/
 



We raise funds to support, within our local community, women, men and families who need assistence in screening, diagnosis and treatment for Breast Cancer.  This is our 6th year and we are proud of all the people we have been able to help because of your participation.  We have been able to help women and men who have lost their jobs and insurance coverage to get proper screening and treatment for breast cancer.    Waiting for care creates a greater risk for  Late stage detection and cancer advancing and spreading. Help us make a difference. 



This is the single biggest fundraiser for the National Breast Center Foundation.    Funds raised with this years Walk to Bust Cancer will allow us to provide care that directly benefits our community and far beyond.
