October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, which is an annual campaign to increase awareness of the disease. This year, The Weeks Lerman Group participated in “Making Strides for Cancer” walk, a yearly event that unites nearly 300 communities with a shared determination to finish the fight against breast cancer. Passionate walk participants raise critical funds that enable the American Cancer Society to fund groundbreaking breast cancer research; provide free, comprehensive information and support to those touched by breast cancer; and help people take steps to reduce their breast cancer risk or find it early when it is most treatable.
This year TWLG wanted to run this campaign not just as a company, but as a family. The employees of The Weeks Lerman Group made the “Making Strides for Cancer” walk not just for breast cancer, but for ALL WHO ARE AFFECTED BY CANCER. There have been so many of us who have in one way or another been affected by this disease; a family member, a coworker, or a friend. By walking and fundraising together, we made an important step toward the next big breast cancer research breakthrough that will allow more survivors celebrate more birthdays.
