Strides Rewards
Like so many others, I became involved in this walk because breast cancer has deeply impacted my life. The Bosom Buddies were created in memory of Elaine Hudson. Auntie missed her yearly mammogram and the following year was diagnosed with stage 4 metastasized breast cancer. Breast Cancer claimed her life after a courageous 5-year battle. Auntie Elaine was an inspiration to so many. I created the Bosom Buddies as a fun way to remember her and her legacy.
As another year passes, I find myself trying to comprehend the fact that everyone I talk to has a loved one fighting the battle. The harsh reality is cancer is no longer the “older generations” disease- it’s now my generation’s fight! Making Strides is the breast cancer division of the American Cancer Society. That is why I joined Strides. Our fundraising focuses of the cure for Breast Cancer but it also sponsors ALL cancer research. I am determined more than ever to fight for a cure and end this horrible disease.
In supporting their employees my company, Stop & Shop, has become a major flagship sponsor of this event (as well as other Making Strides walks on the east coast). I am asking for your support, even the smallest donation will be greatly appreciated. Together we can help fight for a cure and end this horrible disease… imagine a world cancer free!!! Thanks for your support Kerri 8)

Your support allows the American Cancer Society to continue:
Fighting breast cancer in city halls, statehouses, and Congress by elevating the patient voice to advance policy change through the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN)
Ensuring no one feels alone at any point on their breast cancer journey, from prevention to survivorship, and, for some, the end of life.
Investing in breakthrough science to find more - and better - treatments, uncover factors that may cause breast cancer, and improve patients' quality of life.
Ensuring that all people have a fair and just opportunity to prevent, find, treat, and survive breast cancer. ACS and ACS CAN believe all people should have a fair and just opportunity to live a longer, healthier life free from cancer regardless of how much money they make, the color of their skin, their sexual orientation, gender identity, their disability status, or where they live.
Thank you for fueling the American Cancer Society's fight against breast cancer.
Many thanks to our generous sponsors for fueling the American Cancer Society's fight against breast cancer.

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.
