Event Description
Hosted by the North Coast Healthcare Collaborative
You probably know someone in your circle that has been affected by breast cancer, whether you knew it or not. Breast cancer is the most common reportable cancer among women in Ohio, regardless of race. Join us on October 9 to "Save Your Pumpkins" with a 5K run or walk through downtown Sandusky, Ohio. The North Coast Healthcare Collaborative has teamed up to raise awareness about breast cancer, and support each organization’s foundation. The collaborative consists of four area health systems: The Bellevue Hospital, Firelands Health, Fisher-Titus, and Magruder Hospital.
Benefitting Patients in Your Community
All proceeds will benefit foundations at each of the North Coast Healthcare Collaborative health systems. Funds will be used for patient support, breakthrough equipment, and research to prevent, diagnose and cure breast cancer. Donations are also encouraged from friends and family who will not be participating in the race.
