1. Making strides against breast cancer

    If you read this blog regularly, you know that ChallengePost’s mission is to bring people together to solve problems and accomplish goals collectively. So when we heard about the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk happening in New York City on Oct. 16, we knew we wanted to do our part. 

    This 5-mile walk is a celebration of survivorship, an occasion to express hope, and a shared goal to end a disease that threatens the lives of so many people we love.

    We’re walking to:

    • Educate and empower men and women to live healthy lives and reduce their risk for breast cancer, and to get screening tests such as mammograms to find breast cancer early, when it is easiest to treat
    • Provide people facing breast cancer with information, day-to-day help, and emotional support to guide them through every step of their breast cancer experience
    • Invest in and conduct research that leads to groundbreaking discoveries into breast cancer’s causes and cures
    • Work with legislators to support laws that help fight breast cancer and help all people get access to screenings and care

    Want to join the fight against breast cancer? Learn how you can help.
