Making Strides Against Breast Cancer

Rain or shine, an army of local breast cancer survivors and volunteers will march in the 15th annual American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk at the Queens Borough Hall. Last year, an estimated 6,500 people participated in Making Strides in Queens raising $706,000 locally. Proceeds go to support the American Cancer Society’s breast cancer research, education, advocacy and patient service programs that serve Queens residents.

Thousands are expected to come to support breast cancer research and find the cure. Monies raised go to sustaining vital patient and family support programs in Queens and fighting for public policies that improve access to breast cancer screening so all women can be screened and treated.
