Making Strides of Utica Presented by Upstate Cancer Center

Team VIPink (GreenScapes)

For over 10 years, we’ve been raising money for breast cancer research and several families who have been affected by this disease. With the generosity of friends, family and local businesses around our area, GreenScapes has raised over $60,000 since the inception of “Pink Days” in 2012. This annual event began as part of the Invincibelle Spirit Campaign for a Cure, a nation-wide fundraiser, but has grown into so much more for us at GreenScapes. We’ve met so many amazing, brave and strong people through this event, and they’ve all become life-long friends.

THIS IS YOUR CAPTAIN SPEAKING... 

"In November of 2019, I was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer. To say those words aren’t absolutely terrifying would be a lie. I was lucky enough to not only catch it early, but have undergone effective treatments, and can happily report that I am CANCER FREE. I’m thankful for supportive family and friends, amazing nurses and doctors, and an early diagnosis. Knowing so many people who have gone through similar things has brought me comfort and support."

 

This year, we've decided to start a team and Join The Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk!

With our goal of making the most impact that we can in the name of such a worthy cause, we are looking to generous friends and family for donations. How can you help? If participation in this worthwhile cause is something you are compelled to assist with, you can sign up today to join our team, for which we would be most appreciative. Most important to consider in relation to this request is the impact you will have on individuals who may be affected by the biggest fight of their lives to date.

We at GreenScapes greatly appreciate your support; whatever form it comes in. The success of these events will be attributed to the participants and the generous people and businesses in our community. Your time and donations will help raise funds help bring awareness and research funds to the individuals who run the risk of developing breast cancer at some point in their life or are currently fighting this disease. 

Thank you in advance for your support!

 

Even though we all have our own reasons for joining Making Strides, we'll take down breast cancer because we're in it together. Our team is fundraising for the American Cancer Society's support services and lifesaving research.
 
Believe us, every dollar really does count, so we're asking for your help. Please donate or join our team today, because together we can end breast cancer.

How Fundraising Impacts Your Community

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.

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.
