PCAA-DMV Prostate Cancer Bike/Run/Walk Virtual Challenge Event
The Prostate Cancer Awareness Alliance – District of Columbia, Maryland, & Virginia (PCAA-DMV) is hosting our first virtual fundraiser - "PCAA-DMV Prostate Cancer Awareness Bike/Run/Walk Virtual Challenge Event" between September 17-30, 2021. September is Prostate Cancer Awareness Month and while we want to spread the word as widely as possible, considering the pandemic, we want to do it safely. PCAA-DMV is sponsoring a virtual bike / run / walk event which means you can participate wherever you are, alone, with friends/family, or community. We are asking each participant to raise at least $100 or more during September.
The goal is to raise awareness about the importance of proactive prostate health, education, cancer treatments, and advocacy through alliances and partnerships for men, their families, and our communities.
PCAA-DMV launched in 2020. Since then, our organization has connected with more than 300 men and their families to help increase understanding about prostate cancer treatment options and support services within the DMV region. We have also helped connect men with prostate cancer survivors and support groups which allows information sharing and comfort in knowing they don’t have to travel the prostate cancer survivor’s journey alone. And more importantly, there is life after prostate cancer.
Your registration fee includes a tee-shirt and a medallion. We are requesting a minimum $100 donation to help us continue our educational events and prostate cancer survivor stories for our prostate cancer awareness programs and support sessions. Our goal is to increase prostate health/cancer education for more men and their families.
