Walk/Run

People with Purpose Walk/Run Breast Cancer Awareness Month

About Sponsorship Expo Registration Teams Donation Page Photos

Our 27th Walk/Run Fundraiser & Community Expo
will take place at Quarry Lakes Regional Park on Saturday, September 26, 2026!

We’re hard at work planning our 2026 Walk/Run Event!
Stay tuned for more information and subscribe to our newsletter and follow us on Facebook and Instagram to get news even faster.

We’ll unveil this year’s theme very soon and rest assured that funds raised at this year’s event will provide underserved patients post-surgical products and services that help them heal physically and emotionally.

Be sure to join us as this feel-great event is also a wonderful opportunity for breast cancer survivors and their loved ones to celebrate life and remember and honor those who have battled breast cancer.

2026 EVENT ELEMENTS:
Emcee: KTVU FOX 2’s Heather Holmes

Activities: 5k Walk (in person or virtual), 5k or 10k Timed Run
Registration Benefits: commemorative t-shirt, finisher’s medal and bib, light breakfast and barbecue lunch with veg option.

Community Expo includes booths representing healthcare and wellness and local small businesses and nonprofits.
This event will also include entertainment, giveaways, a themed Footprints Booth,
and an amazingly energetic Bollywood Dance Warmup hosted by Shameem Z.!

And, for our breast cancer patients and survivors, participation in
Elaine’s Memorial Circle and the opportunity to Ring the Bell at the Patient and Survivors Booth.

WALKERS & RUNNERS: LEVEL UP!
Create a team of at least 5 walkers or runners and incorporate a theme — go with Western or whatever you want!
Go crazy with creativity and you just might take home a 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place trophy.
Judges will rank teams based on creativity and spirit.

This event wouldn’t be complete without our fun and informative HERS Community Expo featuring healthcare and community-based organizations, local businesses, and service organizations. If you’re interested in purchasing a booth, contact Lorena Oliva at (510) 790-1911 x105 for more info.
