From the Organizer

Saturday, October 3, 2026 | Breast Cancer Run/Walk 4Life 8:00 AM - 12:30 

Join Sister2Sister, Inc. for our 21st Annual Run/Walk 4Life—a meaningful celebration of life, hope, and healing for breast cancer survivors and the communities walking alongside them. Whether you're walking in memory, in honor, or in support, you make a difference with every step.

This year’s Run/Walk is Virtual & In-Person—so no matter your location, age, physical ability, or treatment status, you can participate and make a difference. Walk, run or stand at your own pace, from anywhere in the country. Our national reach enables us to support our mission of bringing hope and healing to more families.


Our Mission

Sister2Sister, Inc. provides sanctuary, support, education, advocacy, and breast cancer-related programs for minority and underserved breast cancer survivors.

Why We Walk

The Run/Walk 4Life is a sacred event. It honors the memory of those who lost their battle with breast cancer and celebrates the lives of triumphant survivors who continue the fight.

Proceeds support:

  • Community outreach & breast health education workshops
  • Breast Cancer Assistance Program (BCAP) – providing emergency services during treatment
  • Counseling sessions, survivor support meetings, and mammography outreach

When you walk, you are helping us save lives and bring vital breast health resources to thousands of families in need.
