Susan G. Komen®, the world’s leading breast cancer organization, today announced it will host two MORE THAN PINK Walks this spring. The East Pennsylvania MORE THAN PINK Walk will take place on Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 14, and the Pittsburgh MORE THAN PINK Walk will take place on Sunday, May 21.
The events will raise critical funds that support breast cancer patients, research and patient navigation services to better serve those impacted by the disease. There is no cost to register for either Walk.
“We look forward to welcoming walkers to two great events to make a difference in our fight against breast cancer,” said Brandie Engelberger, executive director at Susan G.
