ACS: Making Strides Against Breast Cancer

This morning I attended the kickoff breakfast for the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk being held October, 28th in Ocean City, New Jersey.

Making Strides Against Breast Cancer is a noncompetitive walk to help fight breast cancer and provide hope to people facing the disease. Your participation will support the American Cancer Society's lifesaving research, prevention, early detection, and support programs for thousands of patients and their families.

I learned today that Making Strides is more than just a walk -- it is the amazing progress that is being made to defeat breast cancer. This is truly an inspiring event!

1. Good luck with your walk. My mom is building a team in the Buffalo, NY Strides. If you're interested a TV station in Albany is doing a series on Making Strides. Parts 1 and 2 are up at youtube.
