Starpoint Celebrated the Making Strides Walk
On Saturday, October 17, 2015, Starpoint had another strong showing for the annual Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk. This walk is sponsored by NYSUT and has been wonderfully supported by the STA for many years. The American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk is a powerful event to raise awareness and funds to end breast cancer. As the largest network of breast cancer events in the nation, the noncompetitive three- to five-mile walks unite nearly 300 communities with a shared determination to finish the fight against breast cancer. Passionate participants raise critical funds enabling the Society to fund groundbreaking breast cancer research; provide free, comprehensive information and support to those touched by breast cancer; and help people take steps to reduce their breast cancer risk or find it early when it is most treatable.
The Starpoint Team ranked # 17 out of 384 teams walking in Buffalo's Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk and fundraiser! We donated $2618.00 to help this cause!! It was a magnificent day with family, friends and colleagues walking around Canalside to raise awareness and funds to find a cure. Thanks for helping to make a difference in the fight against cancer! A special thank you to all who donated directly, people that walked, those that supported the dress down day, those that wore pink and gave emotional support. We look forward to an even better year in 2016!
