From the Organizer
The 20th Annual Pink Ribbon Run is proudly supported by our generous Warrior Sponsors: Oakridge Real Estate, Community Auto Group, Gilead, UnityPoint Health, and Bambinos.
Every dollar raised makes a meaningful difference. A breast cancer diagnosis often brings unexpected expenses beyond medical care, and your support helps ease that burden for those who need it most.
Join us in person on October 3 or take part virtually October 3-10. Whether you register as an individual, form a team, or choose to fundraise in support of the cause, every participation option helps make an impact. Once again this year, breast cancer survivors receive FREE registration thanks to our Warrior Sponsors.
- Take part in the 20th Annual Pink Ribbon Run in person on Saturday, October 3, or participate virtually from October 3-10.
- Registration is $35 through September 15 and $40 after September 15.
- Register by September 16 to be guaranteed:
- T-shirt
- Team gathering sign for teams of 15 or more individuals

- Packet pick-up will be held at the Community Main Street Office, 310 E. 4th Street, Cedar Falls.
