16th Annual Pink Ribbon Run

Why Participate?
Cancer is expensive. A lot of times there are costs that add up outside of what insurance covers, and non-medical costs as well. In 2021 the Beyond Pink Fund assisted 100 individuals in Black Hawk and 10 surrounding counties with $97,000 towards medical bills and/or essential living expenses. Even with health insurance, the deductibles and copays are overwhelming and expenses continue throughout an extended treatment plan. Your donations stay local and help make a difference.  Your help is appreciated! THANK YOU!
​
In 2022 we celebrated 16 years!
Thank you for your support! At our event last year we had:

• 1,261 registered participants
• 178 of those were survivors with 1,484 years of survivorship
• Stay tuned for the FINAL TOTAL raised in 2022!​

​

The Pink Ribbon Run was started in memory of Michelle Friedley, who died way too young of breast cancer in 2004.
In 2006, the first Pink Ribbon Run
​was held in her honor.  
"Michelle wanted to help women who needed financial and emotional support.
She has left a legacy of giving that she would not have been able to leave, had she not gone through cancer. She had a trademark smile and I am sure that smile is blanketing every single
Pink Ribbon Runner!"
​- Pam Dowie, founding committee member of the Pink Ribbon Run
