PEORIA, Ill. – The Susan G. Komen Foundation will host its 40th annual More Than Pink Walk at Peoria’s Metro Centre.
The event, which begins at 8 a.m. Saturday, is the Foundation’s main fundraiser for breast cancer research and support services.
“It’s such a humbling morning for me,” executive director of Komen’s Central Illinois Memorial Market, Jordan Clum, told 25 News. “The work that we do every day culminates in these signature events of ours, and it’s just so inspiring on these mornings to come out and see the community rallying around this cause and what we fight for every day.”
There is also a “Pathway of Hope,” which is a river of pink representing survivors, fighters and those who have lost their lives to breast cancer.
