Megan Marsh is a 30-year-old woman whose strength and resilience have always been admired by those who know her. In July of 2024, Megan and her husband welcomed their beautiful baby Mila into the world, marking the joyous occasion of becoming first-time parents. However, amidst the excitement and anticipation of meeting their new addition, Megan faced an unexpected and daunting challenge. In her third trimester, Megan was diagnosed with stage 2 triple-negative breast cancer. This aggressive diagnosis led to an early delivery, as Megan's healthcare team prioritized her urgent need for treatment. Despite the emotional and physical toll, Megan faced her situation with unwavering courage and determination. She began her chemotherapy treatments shortly after giving birth, demonstrating remarkable strength as she balanced the demands of new motherhood with the rigors of her cancer battle. Megan's faith and positive spirit have been a source of inspiration for everyone around her. She firmly believes that with God's guidance and the support of her loved ones, she can overcome any obstacle. Our team, Mila's Mom, was formed to stand by Megan's side in this fight against breast cancer. We are a group of friends, family, and supporters who are committed to showing Megan that she is not alone in this journey. We walk, run, and rally together, fueled by Megan's indomitable spirit and our shared determination to see her conquer cancer. With every step we take, we honor Megan's bravery and the immense love she has for her family. Our mission is to raise awareness, provide support, and contribute to the ongoing fight against breast cancer. Together, we are stronger, and together, we will fight with and for Megan, believing in her ability to emerge victorious. Join us in supporting Megan Marsh and all those battling breast 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.

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.
