A breast cancer diagnosis -- whether it’s your own or someone you love -- can leave you feeling helpless. Imagine if there was a way to fight back-- to do something that can make an impact. There is. It’s called the PINK 13.1 Walk/Run/Bike. It’s a 1 day, 13.1 mile walk, run, or bike making a real difference in the fight against breast cancer for Virginians.
VBCF invites you to join the movement and take a stand against breast cancer by fundraising and joining us in Abingdon (or virtually) October 21, 2023. 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.
Each participant must raise a minimum of $300 to participate. Participants will receive support every step of the way including a training plan, a personal fundraising page and a facebook group to connect with other participants.
You must register by October 1, 2023 to guarantee your size sweatshirt for the event.
