Come Walk With Me Cause

Pierce County’s pinkest walk is back on Saturday, October 5, in honor of those who are going through a breast cancer diagnosis or treatment, in celebration of those who have fought cancer and won and in remembrance of those we have lost too soon. This is the kick-off to our month-long fundraising efforts, where donor dollars benefit breast health programs and services at MultiCare Good Samaritan Hospital and the Good Samaritan Cancer Resource Center.

For more than 17 years, our local cancer resource center has offered some of the world’s most advanced cancer-fighting diagnostic technology, along with compassionate support services for patients and their families, including:

• Patient and care partner navigation services with referrals and assistance for transportation, food and other practical needs
• Virtual cancer support group
• Virtual wig program with consultations, trims and alterations

Come Walk With Me funds will support breast cancer patients seeking treatment through MultiCare and at MultiCare Good Samaritan Hospital, as well as help ensure the cancer resource center can serve patients in treatment as comprehensively as possible.
