PurpleStride Birmingham unites the community and raises awareness and support for the fight against pancreatic cancer. The timed 5K run and family-friendly walk will take participants through Veterans Park, with children’s activities, entertainment and refreshments to follow.
It is estimated that more than 48,900 Americans will be diagnosed with pancreatic cancer this year, and more than 40,000 will die from the disease. It is the fourth leading cause of cancer death, with a 5-year relative survival rate of just 7 percent.
