the weekend to end breast cancer - a transforming experience

yesterday afternoon was the celebration of another weekend to end
breast cancer. one weekend a year, thousands of walkers, encouraged by
tens of thousands of sponsors, donors and supporters, walk 60 km (38
miles) to help erase breast cancer.  on a very tangible level, this has made a huge difference. before
the weekend to end breast cancer started in 2004, the BC cancer society
had $200,000 to study breast cancer. since then, $10,000,000 have been
allocated to breast cancer research.
