Breast Cancer Survivors Walk to Support Each Other

DULUTH- The American Cancer Society held their 5th annual "Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk" Saturday at the Lake Superior College.More than 200 people walked, not only to raise funds for research and support but to give hope to all people facing the disease.

Community event organizer, Amanda Pilger said, "I think this is a great event to really just bring our breast cancer survivors, all their supporters, their caregivers and the community together to rally around them. To show our support for them and their journey as they went through breast cancer."

Organizers are hoping to raise over $20,000 and while they didn't have the final totals, they said they are well on their way.
