Event Description

In the past eight years, our walk has raised almost $1,200,000. In doing this, we fulfilled the requirements for institutional support and were recognized by the National Cancer Institute, which resulted in our receiving complementing funds that enabled us to award a total of $2,700,000 in grants for prostate cancer research, and awareness. This has enabled us to award 55 new prostate cancer research projects.

Every 2.3 minutes a man is diagnosed with prostate cancer. Prostate cancer causes 32,500 deaths a year; one death every 16 minutes. Walk to save lives.
