Susan G. Komen®, the world’s leading breast cancer organization, will hold the annual Miami/Ft. Lauderdale MORE THAN PINK Walk on October 14, 2023, at Amelia Earhart Park. This signature event enables Komen to raise critical funds that provide direct support to breast cancer patients, fund groundbreaking research, empower health equity initiatives nationwide, and advocate for change at both the state and federal government levels.
“We are excited to host the annual Miami/Ft. Lauderdale MORE THAN PINK Walk this year and provide a community for those impacted by breast cancer,” said Sean Gross, State Executive Director at Susan G. Komen. “Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer death among Hispanic women in the U.S, and the Miami/Ft. Lauderdale area has one of the largest Latinx populations in the country. We look forward to raising funds that advance health equity outcomes and break down the barriers that create poor breast health outcomes for these communities.”
