10th Anniversary Atlanta 2-Day Walk for Breast Cancer

1:00 AM - 1:00 AM

Atlanta, GA
USA

It’s The Journey, Inc. – producer of the Atlanta 2-Day Walk for Breast Cancer – is a local organization founded 10 years ago by a breast cancer survivor, Randi Passoff. When the Avon 3-Day Breast Cancer Walk pulled out of Atlanta in 2002, Randi, a long time walker, decided that Atlanta needed a fundraising event wherein all of the funds stayed local to support Georgia breast cancer patients and breast health programs. She created what we call “the kinder and gentler breast cancer walk”. Instead of the 3-Day model of walking 60 miles over 3 days and sleeping in a tent, the Atlanta 2-Day Walk covers 30 miles over 2 days and we sleep in a hotel. It’s The Journey, Inc.’s mission is to strengthen Georgia’s breast cancer community by raising money and awareness for local organizations that focus on breast cancer education, early detection, awareness and support services, as well as the unmet needs in the breast cancer community.
