October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and we have a meaningful opportunity to make a difference!
The American Cancer Society’s Making Strides Against Breast Cancer initiative is more than just a campaign—it's a celebration of courage and hope. It’s a movement that unites communities to end breast cancer as we know it. By participating in Making Strides, you’ll help raise lifesaving funds that support breast cancer patients, survivors, thrivers, and caregivers throughout their journey.
We need people like you to join us in this vital effort. Every way you choose to get involved will contribute to saving lives from breast cancer. Together, we can make a significant impact, but we can’t do it without your support. Let's work together to make a difference!

What is Strides?: The American Cancer Society started Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walks to unite communities in the fight against this deadly disease. Today, Making Strides is the largest network of breast cancer events in the nation - and we do more than just walk. We raise money to help the American Cancer Society fund groundbreaking breast cancer research and provide patient services like free rides to chemo, free places to stay near treatment, and a live 24/7 cancer helpline. But we can’t do any of this without the help of people like you.
