| Taking Steps Against Breast Cancer |
| |
Join us for the Canadian Cancer Society Taking Steps Against Breast Cancer, a leisurely 5 to 10 kilometre, non-competitive, pledge-based walk, taking place during the fall in communities across Ontario. This family-friendly, fun-filled event raises money to fund important breast cancer research and is a wonderful way to celebrate survivors in your community and remember those who have lost their lives to the disease.
Help us to do more in the fight against breast cancer.
If it hasn't already, breast cancer will touch you or someone you know. In Canada, over 21,000 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year. In fact, one in nine Canadian women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime. But breast cancer is not just a woman's disease. It touches spouses, partners, children, parents, siblings, friends and co-workers.
