URGENT NOTICE From CVBCA President

NOW VIRTUAL CVBCA 25th Annual 5k WALK/RUN

After many consultations with our local healthcare partners and community leaders, I have decided that in the interest of keeping our Warriors, friends, and community safe, our CVBCA 25th Walk/Run will be held virtually this year.

Covid cases are higher now than this time last year. It is disheartening to know that only 37.9% of eligible Franklin County residents are vaccinated. This is contributing to the increase in positive cases and hospitalizations. I am very concerned about the children in our community who are not yet eligible for vaccinations. We must do everything we can to protect them and our immunocompromised friends.

It breaks my heart to not have the event in person, but this is not the time to value feelings over safety. Showing love to our Pink Warriors is one of my biggest joys each year at the Walk/Run! Know that I will be walking with you in my heart!

When our t-shirts arrive, we will set up dates for pickup and notify our registrants. We will also have special gifts to give our Warriors to celebrate our 25th Anniversary. Everyone that is registered to date is guaranteed a shirt. We should have a few extras available for sale.

We hope that you will still complete a walk/run on September 18 (or a day that works for you) to honor and remember our Pink Warriors. Please take lots of photos, post them to social media, and tag us. You can also send photos to cvbca@comcast.net. We will compile a video of love and remembrance!

Continue to keep our community, the CVBCA, and most importantly our Pink Warriors in your prayers.

Help take care of 126 individuals who were newly diagnosed with breast cancer
Give each patient a lovely care pack which included a $25 gift card
Provide over $5760 in Financial Aid for those who qualified
Provided free mammograms for 86 women through our MammaGift Project © - for uninsured or under insured. Four of these individuals were diagnosed with breast cancer and able to get treatment
