Making Strides Against Breast Cancer pins. (Credit: WINK News) October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and Sunday marks an opportunity to celebrate survivors. The Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk continues despite Hurricane Ian hitting the area less than a month ago. The walk is one of the biggest breast cancer fundraisers in Southwest Florida. It is sponsored by WINK News and our partners at Gulfshore Life. WINK News anchors Lois Thome and Lindsey Sablan will be there to participate in the event. Most people think of breast cancer as a women’s disease, but men can be affected too. The money raised will support patients and funds to research a cure. The fundraiser event is being held at the softball fields at North Collier Regional Park. The walk began at 10 a.m. Sunday. In addition to the walk, there is a social gathering for people to connect and share stories. There is also be a DJ and food trucks at the event. Even if you don’t want to walk, you are still encouraged to join in the festivities. The co-chair for the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk, Merry Coffman, is excited about what the walk can do for the community right now. Submit Copyright ©2024 Fort Myers Broadcasting.
