SJ Preston Students and Faculty Walk to Make Strides Against Breast Cancer

Teachers, staff, and students of S.J. Elementary School participated in the annual Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk at Manhattanville College in Purchase.

Sponsored by the American Cancer Society, Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walks are the largest network of breast cancer awareness events in the nation, uniting communities with a shared determination to help free the world from the pain and suffering of breast cancer. According to its website, passionate walk participants raise critical funds that enable the American Cancer Society to fund innovative research; provide free, information and support to anyone touched by breast cancer; and help people reduce their breast cancer risk or find it early when it’s most treatable.

Members of the Preston family walk for themselves, loved ones, or friends to commemorate the brave battle of those afflicted. S.J. Preston participants this year were:
