WHAT IS WALK 3TO9?
Launched in July 2018 in an effort to unify walkers and survivors in the fight against breast cancer, Walk 3to9 was organized by a fellow multi-day walk alumni and fundraising coach who shares the same passion as others in the continued fight against breast cancer. To date the charity walk has raised close to $300K in donations to benefit the Dr. Susan Love Foundation, helping fund over 6000 hours of much needed breast cancer research, but there's still so much to do!
For our 6th annual walk, we believe that there’s power in collective action and coming together, and we’re thrilled to merge Walk 3to9 with the Foundation’s 15th annual Walk With Love event. Our merger helps unify the walkers, volunteers, sponsors, and supporters of the Foundation into one team – after all, isn’t there strength in numbers?
The 2023 Walk With Love course will now feature the option for people to move past the 5K option offered in preceding years, to include the 10K that was signature to Walk 3to9 – giving walkers, joggers, and runners the option to move even more, an extra "push" for research that matters. Walk 3to9 is dedicated to moving the research needle – we invite you to join us on June 11th!

While the anatomy of the human body has been well delineated, the internal distribution of adult female breast ducts remains largely understudied. This is important to note since breast cancer starts in the breast ducts prior to spreading to surrounding tissue. Funds raised through Walk With Love 2023 will directly support our Exploring the Ductal Anatomy project. Our goal is to utilize speed of sound 3D ultrasounds to visualize the distribution of ducts within a particular breast as well as to locate early lesions within a duct. This approach will enable both sampling the fluid in the duct (liquid biopsy) as well as the installation of intraductal therapy to better treat the disease right where it starts. We're getting close to understanding the causes of breast cancer, but to keep this research going, we are asking for your support of Walk With Love 2023.
