Fanmire's 5th Annual Walk for Breast Cancer

Making a difference is a walk in the park with Fanmire!

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and we need YOU to come out and support the cause. Will you join this fight & walk with us?

We are excited to announce the 5th Annual Breast Cancer Awareness Walk, on Saturday, October 12th. Join us in Central Park at 10am for an inspiring event that brings together individuals, families, and supporters from all walks of life to raise awareness and funds for breast cancer research.

Who is Fanmire and why we care?

Fanmire is a Harlem-based fan engagement platform that is committed to building community and connection. This event is an important initiative to our community that spreads awareness about cancer prevention and treatment and honors the strength of affected individuals and families.

What's The Goal?

Our annual walks have raised over $20,000 in funding for cancer research and awareness.

This year, our goal is to double that number. We can reach it with your help!

What Comes With My Ticket?

The standard walk ticket allows you to participate with us and receive a branded hoodie, wristband, and pin. Engage with other like-minded event participants!

Groups of 10 or more walkers get 25% the registration fee!

Why Walk for Breast Cancer Awareness?

• According to Breastcancer.org:
• • In 2022, an estimated 287,850 new cases of invasive breast cancer are expected to be diagnosed in women in the U.S., along with 51,400 new cases of non-invasive breast cancer.
  • About 2,710 new cases of invasive breast cancer are expected to be diagnosed in men in 2022. A man’s lifetime risk of breast cancer is about 1 in 833.
  • As of January 2022, there are more than 3.8 million women with a history of breast cancer in the U.S. This includes women currently being treated and women who have finished treatment.
  • Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among American women. In 2022, it’s estimated that about 30% of newly diagnosed cancers in women are going to be breast cancers.

50% of all proceeds will be donated to cancer research and support.
