Women in Construction Unite for the Komen SD More Than Pink Walk
2025 Komen San Diego
More Than Pink Breast Cancer Walk
The MORE THAN PINK Walk, Susan G. Komen’s largest fundraising event series, evolved from the Race for the Cure in 2018. Each year, they host over 100,000 participants at 40+ in-person (and one virtual) walks across the U.S. Since the first Walk in 2018, their participants have raised more than $60 million and continue to be a part of a community committed to their vision of a world without breast cancer.
The WCC is joining forces with the Women in ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers) San Diego Chapter & NAWIC (National Association of Women in Construction) on November 2nd, to help raise funds and awareness of Breast Cancer research.
For too long, pink has been connected to breast cancer awareness. However, people impacted by breast cancer need more than awareness; they need access to treatment, emotional support, and so much more. Thus, more than pink emerged.
Join the walk and contribute to the fight against breast cancer! Register with our team: SD WOMEN IN CONSTRUCTION UNITE
Details:
Registration is free, we encourage you to set a fundraising goal and that to be your registration.
We will meet at 7am at the SE corner of 6th Avenue and Juniper Road. Light breakfast provided.
