Making Strides of Lake County

Hannie's Helpers

Why We are Making Strides

Welcome to our Team Page! Almost everyone has been touched by breast cancer in some way, so we've decided to make a difference by walking and raising money in our local American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer event.

It's hard to believe it's sixteen years since my twin sister and best friend celebrated our last birthday together. It is so painful seeing someone you love die from cancer. I walk to honor Harlene's memory and her brave fight.

With over 80 cents out of every dollar raised going to research and finding solutions, this is the cause I support.

By the way, Hannie's Helpers is kind of an inside joke. When we were little and just learning how to speak, I couldn't pronounce Harlene. Instead, I said Hannie, a nickname my dad carried forward.

Won't you please help, walk with me Sunday, October 13th at beautitful Independence Grove. If you can't make it, please consider making a donation to Making Strides Against Breast Cancer.

And to my women friends, please get your annual mammograms. I understand having the "girls" squashed is unpleasant, but cancer is so much worse.

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.

$71M+

As of January 2022, we have invested $71 M for potentially lifesaving breast cancer specific research grants.

250K

We have received over 250,000 calls and chats from patients and caregivers seeking support in 2021

229K+

Cancer patients benefited from ACS transportation support through our Road TO Recovery program and transportation grants in 2021, with nearly 229,000 rides provided.

Making Strides Rewards

The ACS Rewards program is our way of thanking you for your creativity and passion! Earn points for every dollar raised and you can redeem those points for Making Strides products and swag.

Any donation amount helps save lives from 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.

Join us. Donate today. Or walk with us.
