Strides RewardsThe Bunco Buddies Legacy
The team, fondly known as "The Bunco Buddies," was formed almost 3 decades ago with a shared vision to bring awareness, support, and hope to those affected by breast cancer. We worked tirelessly, dedicating our time, energy, and passion to organizing events, fundraisers, and campaigns that brought communities together and raised vital funds for research, education, and patient support programs. Having accomplished numerous milestones and witnessed the positive impact of our efforts, the members of The Bunco Buddies have decided to retire from active team participation. However, our spirit remains unwavering, and our dedication to the cause persists stronger than ever. Instead of stepping away entirely, the team has transitioned into a new role, focusing primarily on fundraising initiatives. Through our extensive network and community connections, we continue to engage individuals, spreading awareness about breast cancer and the importance of early detection, while raising funds to support vital programs. The Bunco Buddies' commitment to making a difference in the lives of those affected by breast cancer has touched the hearts of many. Our relentless passion and unwavering determination inspire us all to do our part and contribute to the ongoing fight against this disease. Thank you for your past and continued Support!

Cancer hits far too close to home, so the funds you raise will help do the same. Through services and resources like free rides to chemo, free places to stay near hospitals, and a live 24/7 helpline, cancer patients and their families will feel the love. Here’s how recent money raised has been put to incredible uses.
As of January 2022, we have invested $71 M for potentially lifesaving breast cancer specific research grants.
We have received over 250,000 calls and chats from patients and caregivers seeking support in 2021
Cancer patients benefited from ACS transportation support through our Road TO Recovery program and transportation grants in 2021, with nearly 229,000 rides provided.
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.
