Description

Each Moment We're Alive is happy to present our 3rd ANNUAL #CaninesFurCancer Support Walk at the Irish Cultural Center of Western Mass. The walk will be on Friday, June 24, 5:00-9:00 pm.  Due to Covid-19, Our 2020 walk had to convert to a virtual platform in effort to keep all our participants safe and healthy. In 2021 we went to hybrid platform where you could attend in person, or walk where you want. All money raised supports Each Moment We're Alive (EMWA).

Each Moment We’re Alive, Inc., a non profit actively engaged in supporting women to move beyond their cancer diagnosis.  A resounding number of patients are left wondering how to go on with their lives, after their energy and health has been depleted, along with their emotional and financial resources. Many cancer organizations focus on research and comfort during active treatment, and we have seen that our work fills a huge gap

How To Participate: The world is your [dog’s] oyster! While maintaining a safe distance from others, you can join us at the Irish Cultural Center or choose your own path on Friday, June 24 Take lots of photos and videos of all the smiles and sniffs along the way, and share them with us on social media using #CaninesFurCancer.
