ON PURPOSE: Breast Cancer Survivors Walk At Hyattsville Mall To Raise Awareness

Moms, grandmas, daughters, nieces, sisters, granddaughters and local physicians on Oct. 8 to raise awareness to a common plight of many women.

Breast cancer.

The walk was sponsored by All Shades of Pink, a breast cancer awareness group based in Glenn Dale and Washington Gas.

(D-Dist. 2) of Hyattsville showed up to support the walkers, which also included a local faith-based group and men supporting the women in their lives who have survived—or are surviving—the killer disease.

Are you interested in finding a survivor “sister” to support or be encouraged by? ASOP has a blog where you can virtually meet others who have been touched by breast cancer.

You can see more photos of the walk courtesy of ASOP, at their website.
