Help raise essential breast cancer care funding for the growing number of underserved women affected by the COVID-10 pandemic. BCA’s Annual 5K Run/Walk for Hope is now “GET FIT FOR HOPE,” challenging you to exercise in the safety of your own home while raising essential breast cancer care funding for the growing number of underserved women affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Screening mammographies are on hold, neoadjuvant (pre-surgical therapies) are being offered in place of surgery until hospitals are better and more safely prepared to handle non-COVID patients and immunocompromised patients going through chemotherapy have an added layer of fear when they go for their sessions. 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime and 1 in 833 men. Raising money for these critical health care needs is vital. BCA’s GET FIT FOR HOPE CHALLENGE is an easy and impactful way you and your family can do something good for your own health while making an important impact on the healthcare of others. “Get Fit for Hope” Challenge WHEN: Sunday, May 17th, 2020 – Any Time, Anywhere. You can even enjoy one of BCA’s online classes WHERE: At home! PARTICIPATION: Omnicom Group will match the first $20,000 raised on that day! GET FIT FOR HOPE Pick your workout of choice, alone or with family, be it running, spinning, yoga or one of the online classes BCA is offering. Do something healthy for yourself and help raise essential funding to defray breast health care costs for the growing number of underserved women who need our support now more than ever.
