Strides RewardsReflections of Love, Holders of Hope
Reflections of Love, Holders of Hope truly encompasses what our team is all about! When I see the faces of our team members, I see reflections of love...love for family and friends who have battled cancer, love for the caregivers who stood by the sides of those battling, love for our community of supporters, and love for each other. But it doesn't end there; we also have hope! Hope for those currently managing treatment, hope they will become survivors, hope that survivors continue to heal, hope that those who have yet to be diagnosed are able to obtain early detection through screenings and preventative measures, hope that research continues to discover more treatments, safer treatments, and additional options for those who are thriving. We hold hope that future generations will not face the same fears that ours have when it comes to a diagnosis of Breast Cancer, and hope that families will continue to celebrate not only holidays, but every day activities together despite cancer diagnoses.
Family, Friends, if this is important to you, if you or someone you know has had their life impacted by Breast Cancer, I ask that you consider joining our team and make strides with us to end Breast Cancer! Our team is fundraising for the American Cancer Society's support services and lifesaving research. Every dollar really does count, so we're asking for your help. Whether you can donate $5, $50, or any other personalized amount, we appreciate your contribution and the impact it will have on beating Breast Cancer! Our local walk is on Sunday, October 13th at Southwind Park, will you join me?

Thank you for fueling the American Cancer Society's fight against cancer.
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.
