Approximately 1 in 8 women will develop breast cancer in their lifetime. Black women in the U.S. are about 40% more likely to die from breast cancer than White women, despite having similar rates of diagnosis. This disparity is largely due to differences in access to quality healthcare, early detection, and treatment options. At CSA, we proudly partner with Susan G. Komen for our annual Breast Cancer Walk because we believe in making a meaningful impact in the fight against breast cancer, a disease that disproportionately affects our community. As a social justice organization, we are committed to addressing health inequities and advocating for equal access to care, education, and support. This walk is more than just a fundraiser—it's a social justice movement that brings awareness to the challenges faced by those in underserved communities. This year marks our 8th year walking with Susan G. Komen, and we are dedicated to continuing the fight against breast cancer, advocating for change, and supporting those affected by this disease. Together, we walk for hope, awareness, and equity. Please consider joining our team or donating. https://lnkd.in/gheCshEt

I am amazed by how many of my fellow Allspringers have joined the Expect Miracles Foundation - Financial Services Against Cancer distance challenge in 2024 – we are at 434 Strong! It is a cause close to my heart, taking my dad way to early. It is designed to make a difference where 100% of participant-raised dollars through the Distance Challenge goes to cancer research as well as financial assistance for young adult cancer survivors. I can appreciate how many of us have our specific charities, and that is totally understandable. …so here’s my simple ask: Just “like” this post. That’s all. No strings attached. I have > 4k contacts on LinkedIn and if just 25% of those contacts “likes” this post, it will then go to all of their contacts also….think of the awareness campaign that we will create to fight this awful disease with the much needed research that the worlds best scientists are working on now. I am a firm believer that together we can make a difference. (…If you want to make a donation, terrific- here’s my link, but if you just “like” this post, we’ll accomplish a lot also!!) https://lnkd.in/eZzWrxpF (Here I am crushing a ride with #CodyRigsby on my #Peleton reppin’ in my Expect Miracles Foundation - Financial Services Against Cancer gear!!)

The Faris Foundation treats every dollar as if it comes from a child's piggy bank. Because our operating expenses are generously subsidized, we are able to maximize the impact of every dollar we receive by putting it towards our programs, not overhead. We are so grateful to our community of supporters for investing with us, and in our 2023 Impact Report, you can see just how transformative this approach has been in bringing brighter days and better treatments to children with cancer: https://lnkd.in/gfjV3rw3

The four most devastating words that a parent can hear, 'Your child has cancer.' These words change a families life forever. Families celebrate each day, week, month, and year of their child being free of cancer and they will continue for the rest of their lives. Even into adulthood, families are reminded of the harsh treatments received to beat cancer because they struggle with the chronic long-term effects of those toxic treatments. And for those that don’t survive. Those that were given no choice but to lay down their swords. Their families will never be the same. 4% funding for childhood cancer research is not enough. Being told there is 'no known cure' for your child's cancer is not ok. Having life altering side-effects from treatments is not ok. Help us make 2024 a little brighter, full of more #hope, for these courageous children and their families. Your generous donations fuel research for more targeted treatments and cures. 💛 Three days remain to have your donation doubled to make a bigger impact for children just like Kolten. A bigger impact for the 17,000 children that were diagnosed this year and for every year to come. 💛 https://lnkd.in/dJ4U-HC #together #wecandomore #bradenshope #SharePost

As you may or may not know, for the last few years, I've been saddling up and riding 200 kilometres over 2 days to help raise funds for cancer research here in WA. What you might not know is that every 30 minutes—every time you hear the sound of winning cash on breakfast radio, every half-hour traffic report, twice between recess and lunch—an Aussie is diagnosed with melanoma. For those who catch it early, the prognosis is decent. But for those with advanced cases, it becomes a daunting 50/50 chance of survival. I’d bet on red or black at the casino, but I’d never want to face those odds with my life. Ten years ago, that survival rate was an overwhelming 10%. The difference your donations make is profound. 90% of the people diagnosed with melanoma 10 years ago aren’t here anymore. Now, those diagnosed every half hour have a much better chance of survival, thanks to the research and lifesaving machines your donations help fund. You’re helping save lives. If you can spare it, please donate. Let’s get those odds even better! Donate this month and you can even claim it back at tax time. Get those fat stacks back, baby—donate what you can. https://lnkd.in/gBqwCwaJ

Today is National Cancer Survivors Day, and we're celebrating the courage, resilience and triumphs of survivors like Olivia, who inspire us with their incredible strength and positivity. Olivia was diagnosed with stage IV alveolar rhabodmyosarcoma in 2019 when she was only 9 years old. Olivia endure 2 surgeries, 66 weeks chemo and 28 rounds of proton radiation therapy, all while keeping a positive attitude, even during the hardest moments. Today, Olivia is cancer-free. Now is the perfect time to rally behind kids like Olivia, whose stories remind us why we do what we do. Here's how you can get involved: Plan an event: Organize a virtual or in-person gathering, neighborhood walk or social media challenge to support the OliviaStrong Foundation, Inc. Share Olivia’s Journey: Inspire others by sharing Olivia’s story, or your own, on social media and through personal messages. People connect deeply with stories of hope and triumph. Set a Fundraising Goal: Challenge yourself to raise funds that directly contribute to the lifesaving mission of the OliviaStrong Foundation, Inc. https://lnkd.in/e3-PaTht
