Join Breast Cancer Collective for the 2026 Walk to Bust Cancer on Sunday, October 18 at Fort Hunt Park in Alexandria, Virginia.
This annual breast cancer awareness walk brings together survivors, families, friends, teams, and community supporters from Alexandria and across Northern Virginia for a morning of connection, remembrance, and action.
Funds raised through the Walk to Bust Cancer support Breast Cancer Collective’s work to expand access to breast cancer screening, diagnosis, treatment, and support services for people who may otherwise struggle to afford or access care.
The event includes a special recognition of breast cancer survivors and warriors, along with a welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere for walkers of all ages. Participants may register individually or as part of a team, and fundraising is encouraged but not required.
Whether you are walking in honor of someone you love, celebrating survivorship, remembering someone lost to breast cancer, or simply showing up to support better access to care, you are invited to be part of the community.
The Walk to Bust Cancer takes place Sunday, October 18, 2026, at Fort Hunt Park in Alexandria, VA.
Register, join a team, or learn more at WalktoBustCancer.org.
