BUFFALO, N.Y. — Join us on Saturday, April 27th at Buffalo RiverWorks for PanCAN PurpleStride WNY, the ultimate walk to end pancreatic cancer. On April 27, 2024, pancreatic cancer survivors, families, caregivers, researchers and supporters will take steps together at nearly 60 PurpleStride events across the nation, including right here in Western New York, to honor everyone affected by the disease. It’s an inspirational day to celebrate survivors, honor those we have lost to pancreatic cancer.
Register for FREE on-line today by visiting PanCAN.org. Your participation and fundraising help pancreatic cancer patients in Western New York by:
- Offering free, personalized support and resources through PanCAN Patient Services
- Providing molecular testing at no cost through PanCAN’s Know Your Tumor®
- Supporting PanCAN’s research priorities of finding an early detection strategy and accelerating treatments
- Creating hope — because a five-year survival rate of 13% is just not acceptable.
Everyone who registers and raises $50 or more will receive an official PanCan PurpleStride 2024 T-shirt, $1,000 or more will become a member of the PanCan PurpleStride Grand Club and receive exclusive Grand Club Gear!
