Susan G. Komen More Than Pink Walk Lowcountry to Show Power of the Breast Cancer Community This October
“We are excited to join together as one community,” said Erica Boles, Development Director. “The health and safety of our community are, and always have been, our top priorities. After consulting with government health guidance and monitoring the evolving risk to our community, many of whom have compromised immune systems and may be unable to receive a COVID vaccine, we will unite as One community from homes and neighborhoods across the area. No matter where you are, we all feel the presence of our one community every step of the way.”
The local event will feature a new audio experience and community scavenger hunt during the walk to help bring the community of hope and compassion together in a new way while raising funds to save lives from breast cancer. The audio experience will showcase those touched by breast cancer and why they walk and fundraise.
Funds raised by the community support Komen’s investments in breakthrough research, needed patient care and public policy action at all levels of government. We are all working to discover the cures while supporting people facing breast cancer today, ensuring everyone can get the care they need to live.
“The power of our community is not about physically being together, it’s about the impact every one of us can make when we walk one more step and raise one more dollar,” Boles said. “Every one of us, no matter who we are or where we live, deserves a chance at living a long and healthy life. Together, we will make certain that no one faces breast cancer alone.”
