Raising Funds to Help Breast Cancer Survivors
Join the Adelphi Group for the 2020 Walk

The Adelphi NY Statewide Breast Cancer Hotline & Support Program, located in Garden City, has received a grant of $25,250 from the LI2Day Walk. Each year, since the event was established in 2004, a team representing the Adelphi program participates in the walk. To date, the program has received $465,200 to help in their efforts to provide emotional support to people coping with breast cancer.

The next walk is scheduled for Sunday, May 17, 2020. This 10K walk will be held at Sunken Meadow State Park in Smithtown. There is a registration fee of $75 and each walker is encouraged to raise a minimum of $500. To participate visit: https://www.li2daywalk.org.
