Yesterday the Access to Breast Cancer Diagnosis Act was introduced in the House & Senate. The #ACBDAct helps remove financial barriers to imaging such as MRI, ultrasound or mammograms, which are important in diagnosing #BreastCancer. We urge Congress to swiftly pass this bill.

It started with one man. One track. One mission. In 1985, Dr. Gordy Klatt walked for 24 hours to change the future of cancer. Next Thursday, we’re celebrating his first step—and yours. We will be able to see our impact on a live leaderboard and on our event page starting 5/1 (#GordysGiveBackDay)!

We are looking for volunteer drivers in our area. The hospital systems have expressed a dire need for the program to reboot in Mid-Michigan! Do you or does someone you know have some flexibility in their schedule to help provide even 1 ride per month to a cancer related appointment?
