Join NYCBS in the Fight Against Breast Cancer!

Sept. 23, 2024

With Breast Cancer Awareness Month approaching, New York Cancer & Blood Specialists (NYCBS) is excited to participate once again in this year’s American Cancer Society (ACS) Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walks. These incredible events inspire hope for those affected by breast cancer and raise vital funds to find a cure.

Participants from all walks of life—including patients, providers, volunteers, and caregivers—come together, decked out in pink, to achieve one common goal: to end breast cancer.
