Organiser's Description

Since 2014, Pink Lady Walk has hosted an annual 5K Run/Walk to raise awareness and provide direct financial support to individuals diagnosed with breast cancer. Our mission is simple: to help alleviate some of the financial burdens caused by this devastating disease.

Unlike many organizations that focus solely on research, Pink Lady Walk supports survivors and their families directly. Since our founding, we have assisted 25 breast cancer survivors, one child with cancer, Hospice of Limestone County (AL), the Patient Assistance Fund at The Southern Cancer Center in Huntsville (AL), and the Joy to Life Foundation in Montgomery (AL).

Economic hardship is often an invisible part of the cancer journeyone that many families cannot overcome alone. Pink Lady Walk has become a beacon of hope for those facing both breast cancer and financial crisis. Through our three direct programsRecipient Direct, Bill Direct, and Pharmacy Directwe help families stay afloat during one of the most difficult seasons of their lives.

We are committed to continuing this work. Pink Lady Walk welcomes donations and sponsorships from individuals, businesses, and organizations to continue providing immediate, meaningful assistance to those affected by breast cancer.

Thank you for showing up for this mission and for the families we serve.

Sharon Carter

Founder and Executive Director
