The American Cancer Society is hosting the Making Strides Newark event. This event is a non-competitive three-mile walk to raise awareness and funds for breast cancer programs.
For people not interested in participating in the walk, but would still like to contribute, there are plenty of resources on their website including, a School Team Leading Kit. This kit is a document that can be printed and handed out for fundraising ideas for schoolchildren of all ages.
The event organizers emphasize that the walk is not a race. There is no need to complete the entire walk if one is unable to. At the race, there will be a special area reserved for survivors and caregivers. In this area, survivors and caregivers can find helpful resources and programs provided by the American Cancer Society.
The Making Strides Newark event takes place on Saturday, October 18. Registration begins at 8 am, and the walk begins at 10 am. There are no registration fees, but participants are encouraged to fundraise to help the American Cancer Society continue programs and services for those affected by breast cancer.
Flyer printing is often used to promote events such as these in the local community.
All walkers must be registered, even children. This can be done on the official website for Making Strides Newark or in-person on the day of the race. The location of the race is yet to be determined.
