I registered for the Pink 13.1 because I want to make a real difference in the fight against breast cancer for Virginians. I'm a breast cancer survivor because my cancer was caught early. Early detection saves lives and I want everyone to have access to the tests that can save their lives. In addition to having access to the tests, I want to make sure all people are aware of what breast cancer can look or feel like and know to reach out when something isn't normal on their body. 

I have committed to walking, running or biking 13.1 miles on October 22, 2022 in Abingdon and my goal is $1,000 this year! It's a big goal but I do this because our funds help in our local community. I need your help to do it! Please consider making a tax-deductible donation today in support of my fundraising efforts.

Your support allows VBCF to provide Virginians knowledge and a voice in the fight against breast cancer. The money we raise through the Pink 13.1 is used to provide funding for screening and diagnostic breast health services for uninsured and underinsured in SWVA, individualized resource coordination, free breast health educational materials; newly diagnosed, caregiver, and survivorship packets and advocacy for improved health public policy and research dollars for the state. 100% of funds raised remain in Virginia to help Virginians.
