PanCAN PurpleStride is back on Saturday, April 29, 2023

by Carly Eskin — Oct 6, 2022

Get your purple gear ready, because PanCAN PurpleStride, the ultimate walk to end pancreatic cancer, is back! On Saturday, April 29, 2023, through 60 events across the country, we’re taking all the magic from last year and doing it bigger and better in 2023 – and we want you there!

Registration is now open, so don't wait – sign up today. Help us improve outcomes for patients by participating in and fundraising for PurpleStride!

PurpleStride is the number one way we raise funds to end pancreatic cancer and your participation and fundraising makes all the difference. The money you raise goes to groundbreaking research to bring new treatment options to patients and supports programs like PanCAN Patient Services, which provides free, personalized support to patients, their families and caregivers.

You’ll never forget how attending PurpleStride made you feel – empowered, hopeful, excited, proud, and so much more. PanCAN President and CEO Julie Fleshman, JD, MBA, said, "It's an amazing feeling to come together as a community to show everyone that we’re going to end pancreatic cancer."

From hearing inspiring stories from survivors to walking together in a sea of purple, this is one Saturday you’ll remember. And, if there's not an in-person event close to you, no worries! You can register for PanCAN PurpleStride USA and take steps from wherever you are and however you like.

And don't forget to get your family and friends involved!

Help make this PanCAN PurpleStride our biggest ever!

Want to go the extra mile with us? Consider becoming a PanCAN PurpleStride Team Captain – that way you, your family and friends can all fundraise toward the same goal, making an even bigger impact on patients! Becoming a Team Captain is easy and if you become one, we’ve already set you up for success! We’ll provide you with all the tips and tools you need to build and coach your team and lead them to smashing your fundraising goal.

Everyone who registers and raises or self-donates $50 or more by event day will snag an official PanCAN PurpleStride 2023 T-shirt, available for pick up at your event! And all pancreatic cancer survivors who register for PurpleStride are eligible to receive a special survivor T‑shirt with no fundraising minimum required.

We’ll do our best to ensure supply and preferred sizes, but T-shirts are subject to availability. PanCAN PurpleStride USA participants will be shipped their T-shirts, but they’ll have to register and raise $50 or more by April 9 to receive their T-shirts in time for PurpleStride.

And if you raise $1,000 or more, you’ll become a member of the PanCAN PurpleStride Grand Club and receive an exclusive gift!

Patients and their families need you on their side, and PurpleStride is the perfect way to demonstrate your dedication to ending the world's toughest cancer.
