My Aunt was diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer in 2008 and after a 9 month battle, succumbed to this aggressive disease. Her daughter and I wanted to participate in a charity event to help bring awareness and much needed research money to eradicate this disease, but we found there were no local events to support. We decided to partner with Lustgarten Foundation to establish a walk to honor my Aunt and all those affected by this disease.
In our inaugural walk, we were able to raise $25,000 with the help and support of 90+ walkers. We were also able to secure support from local Fremont businesses in the form of gift cards, water,snacks etc to provide for the walkers, keeping this event truly grass roots.
There will be a free barbeque, snacks, and a raffle for all walkers.
Look forward to seeing you there! Thank you for your time and consideration.
