THANK YOU!
THANK YOU!
On behalf of the American Cancer Society, we would like to thank you for uniting with us at the 15th annual Making Strides Against Breast Cancer of Greater Pittsburgh. You brought the passion. You brought the fun. And most of all, you brought the HOPE for a future free from breast cancer.
Making Strides is the nation’s largest and most impactful movement to end breast cancer as we know it. Because of your support, the American Cancer Society can save more lives from breast cancer – by funding innovative breast cancer research, promoting education and risk reduction, and providing comprehensive patient support to those who need it most.
This year more than 1,500 walkers joined us to end breast cancer as we know it as a united community. Together we have raised over $228,000!
We’ll be sharing more event photos on social media in the coming days, check them out below.

Strides RewardsThis isn’t what I wanted.
Welcome to our Team Page. We've formed a team because this cause is important to us. We want to help. And walking and raising money in our local American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer event is the best way we can do that. We all have different reasons for participating but we share a determination to help save lives from breast cancer.
There are so many ways that the money our team raises helps. It’s helping fund innovative research. It's providing free information for people dealing with the disease. It’s providing rides to treatment and places to stay for people who have to seek treatment far from home. In short, our money is helping save lives. Consider donating to our team and helping advance the cause.
How We Support the American Cancer Society
Of course we walk in the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer event. And we solicit donations from family, friends, and other supporters. But we also schedule fundraisers in lead-up to the big event. Bake-sales, car washes, and countless other types of events. And we promote those on social media, through Facebook and Twitter, by word of mouth, and through flyers at work and around the neighborhood. The success of fundraising events depends on two things - hard work and getting the word out. And we're out to do both. Keep an eye out for our fundraising events.
Join us. Donate today. Or walk with us.
