Description
PURPLESTRIDE LOUISIANA 2020 IS GOING VIRTUAL
Because your safety is our top priority, PurpleStride Louisiana is going virtual, and we invite you to participate in your own way, from anywhere, on Sunday, September 27, 2020.
If you have already registered for PurpleStride, thank you! If you haven’t, register now to get started. It’s easy, it’s free and our community is stronger with you.
Everyone who raises $25 or more in donations (including your previously paid registration fee, if you paid to register) will receive a commemorative virtual PurpleStride T-shirt. Volunteers in your local affiliate will work on a safe way to distribute T-shirts to anyone who qualifies.
PurpleStride walks are among the largest sources of funding for the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network. When you Wage Hope at PurpleStride, you join a vibrant community of survivors, impacted families, loved ones, researchers and advocates committed to rewriting the future of this deadly disease.
Together, we’ve raised more than $87 million for pancreatic cancer research and patient services through community events from 2008 to 2016. But the true impact of our work together is measured in progress, not dollars. The five-year survival rate has increased by three percentage points since 2014 and is now 9 percent. We have inspired more than 1 million people across the country to take action in the fight against pancreatic cancer. With each PurpleStride we continue moving the needle for patients battling this devastating disease.
Purple ribbons don’t rewrite the future of pancreatic cancer. You do.
