2010 MAKING STRIDES AGAINST BREAST CANCER

Beulah and Carmen are breast cancer survivors. Geraldine has lost family members to the disease and wants to fight back. Susan watched her mother win the battle with breast cancer and wants others to know there is hope.

Like these women, we have all been affected by breast cancer in some way. And we all have the power to make a difference in the fight against the disease. That’s why these women, along with 500,000 other passionate supporters, walk in the American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer every year to help achieve a future where breast cancer no longer threatens those we love.

The Piedmont Curves Co-op will be participating in this great event to help raise money to aid in this battle against breast cancer.

Making Strides Against Breast Cancer is a great way to fight back against breast cancer and provide hope to all people facing the disease. Making Strides is not a race; it 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. Making Strides walks do not have a registration fee or minimum fundraising amount. They are open to men, women, and children of all ages. Making Strides Against Breast Cancer unites friends, families, and coworkers to raise awareness and funds to fight breast cancer. Your support enables the American Cancer Society to fund groundbreaking breast cancer research, provide up-to-date cancer prevention and early detection information, help ensure all women have access to mammograms and follow-up care, and provide free programs and services that improve the quality of life for people facing breast cancer.

Stop in your local Curves to see how you can be apart of this extraordinary event!
