Breast cancer fundraising walk set for Acrisure Stadium

2 min read

Breast cancer survivors and thrivers, current patients, their families, and the greater community will gather at Pittsburgh’s Acrisure Stadium for the annual American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk on Saturday, Oct. 21.

Registration and activities begin at 8 a.m., with the walk starting at 10:30.

Not counting skin cancer, breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer for women in the United States. It is the second leading cause of cancer death in women. One in 8 will develop breast cancer in her lifetime.

“We all know someone whose life has been touched by breast cancer,” said Doni Matrone, American Cancer Society Senior Development Manager. “By participating in this event, you will be surrounding yourself with the positive energy of our Strides community as you help to fuel the future of breast cancer discoveries. You can make a difference to those facing a breast cancer diagnosis by helping us to fund hope.”

Making Strides Against Breast Cancer celebrates survivors and thrivers, funds lifesaving breast cancer research, remembers and honors loved ones lost, and is committed to advancing health equity through programs and services, believing that all people should have a fair and just opportunity to live longer, healthier lives free from breast cancer – regardless of how much money they make, the color of their skin, their sexual orientation, gender identity, their disability status, or where they live.

Pre-registration is recommended.
