From the Organizer
CHRISTUS Southern New Mexico is proud to partner with PINK "ME" for our 1st Annual Breast Cancer Awareness 5K Walk/Run. This event brings our community together to honor survivors, remember loved ones, and support those currently battling breast cancer. Participants of all ages are invited to walk or run in a spirit of hope, strength, and unity while helping raise awareness about the importance of early detection and breast health. Together, we can make a difference and take meaningful steps toward a future without breast cancer.
PINK “ME” is dedicated to empowering women and families affected by breast cancer through education, encouragement, and meaningful support. Their initiatives—ranging from community outreach and survivorship programs to partnerships that expand access to mammogram screenings—ensure that no one faces the breast cancer journey alone.
To further support our community, PINK “ME” offers a Patient Portal for Financial Support, providing eligible patients and families with streamlined access to assistance for treatment-related expenses, resources, and guidance.
