Making Strides Against Breast Cancer of the Triangle is a nationwide movement led by the American Cancer Society to unite communities in the fight against breast cancer. Their mission is to fund breakthrough research, provide free information and support to patients and families, and promote early detection and prevention.

Since its inception in 1993, Making Strides has grown into the largest network of breast cancer events in the U.S., with non-competitive 3- to 5-mile walks held in over 200 communities. These events celebrate survivors, honor those affected, and raise critical funds to advance breast cancer research and patient care.

Donations to Making Strides Against Breast Cancer of the Triangle help fund innovative research, provide free lodging and transportation for patients, and support programs that offer guidance and emotional assistance to those battling the disease. Contributions also aid in education and advocacy efforts to improve breast cancer prevention and treatment.
