FORT WAYNE – Cancer Services of Northeast Indiana held their annual Ribbon Walk on May 3.
In total, the fundraising walk raised $120,001 to help local people with cancer. All donations stay local and directly support families throughout Northeast Indiana.
That morning, more than 500 community members attended the event to honor cancer survivors in their life or remember loved ones who passed away from cancer.
Funds raised will help thousands of families who will be impacted by cancer this year.
Cancer Services offers a variety of practical, emotional, and financial supports, many available at no cost regardless of income or insurance status.
“This year, Ribbon Walk raised the most amount of money it ever has, and we have every donor and walker who joined us to thank for that success,” President and CEO Dianne May commented. “Thank you also to the dozens of volunteers who helped us get ready and the generous local businesses who sponsored the event. Together the community is ensuring that people with cancer don’t need to face it alone.”
