Support Connection Seeks Community Ambassadors for its Support-A-Walk

(Yorktown Heights, NY) Support Connection is seeking Community Ambassadors for their 2022 Annual Support-A-Walk, scheduled for Sunday, October 2. Community Ambassadors are volunteers who help spread the word about the Support-A-Walk in their own communities. The event is Support Connection’s most important annual fundraiser. Proceeds provide funding for their year-round breast, ovarian, and gynecological cancer support services, which have helped thousands of people since the organization was founded in 1996.

Once again, the Support-A-Walk theme is “Walk With Us, Wherever You Are.” Support Connection’s programs serve people nationwide, and people nationwide can participate in the Walk, too. The Walk will take place in-person at FDR Park in Yorktown Heights NY, but people are welcome to walk where they are, near and far. No matter where you live, you can join Support Connection supporters and work together for a common cause. To learn more about Support-A-Walk, visit supportconnection.org/support-a-walk.

In keeping with this theme, Community Ambassadors are being sought in communities across the Hudson Valley and across the country. There is no specific time commitment to be a Community Ambassador, and there are many ways to help. Share Walk info and materials in your community; raise awareness; encourage friends and family to participate; donate and raise funds. Support Connection will provide guidance and materials for anyone interested in helping.

Support Connection does not receive funds from any national cancer organizations including Relay for Life, Susan G. Komen, or Making Strides. By participating in or donating to the Support-A-Walk, community members can make a positive difference in the lives of women and families facing the challenges of a breast, ovarian, or gynecological cancer diagnosis.

To learn more about being a Community Ambassador, or to volunteer, donate or raise funds, contact Support Connection at 914-962-6402 or walk@supportconnection.org
