As the dust settles on this year’s West Fight On, we are filled with immense pride and gratitude. The event, which has become a cornerstone in our mission to develop and fund programs that break through barriers to cancer care, achieved a milestone that exceeded even our highest hopes.
This year’s West Fight On was nothing short of extraordinary. We are thrilled to announce that we raised more than $615,000! This phenomenal achievement is a testament to the unwavering support and generosity of our community, volunteers, sponsors and participants. Your dedication and commitment are what make our mission possible, and together, we have made a profound impact in the fight against cancer in our community.
With more than 1,800 participants rallying together at Shelby Farms Park, this year’s West Fight On was also marked by an unprecedented turnout. From runners, walkers and cyclists to volunteers and supporters, each individual played a crucial role in helping us reach this historic milestone. The energy, enthusiasm and sense of community were palpable throughout the event, underscoring the power of collective action in making a difference.
The success of West Fight On 2024 is a moment of celebration, but it also serves as a reminder of the work that remains ahead. The funds raised will go directly towards supporting groundbreaking research and providing free cancer services, such as mammograms, transportation, wigs and garments, to improve patient outcomes.
We are deeply grateful to our sponsors whose generous support made this event possible. Your commitment to our cause is inspiring and crucial in helping us achieve our goals. To our volunteers, whose tireless efforts ensured the smooth execution of the event, your hard work and dedication did not go unnoticed. To every single person who came out, ran, walked, cycled and cheered us on, thank you. We are incredibly fortunate to have such a dedicated community standing with us.
West Fight On has always been more than just a fundraiser; it is a celebration of life, a gathering of those who share a common goal, and a powerful demonstration of what we can achieve when we unite in the fight against cancer. Together, we will keep fighting on, breaking barriers and making a difference in the lives of those affected by cancer.
