Because everyone deserves a lifetime.
The Breast Cancer 3-Day® is a 60-mile walk for women and men who want to make a personal difference in the fight against breast cancer.
Participants walk 60 miles in three days and help raise millions of dollars for breast cancer research and patient support programs. Each night of the event, walkers experience an incredible mobile city that's more than just sleeping tents and warm showers, where they can eat, relax and renew their spirit with their fellow walkers. The Breast Cancer 3-Day benefits Susan G. Komen for the Cure® and the National Philanthropic Trust Breast Cancer Fund.
