WALK FOR LIFE FOUNDATION
The Carrera por la Vida – Walk for Life Foundation is a charity initiative registered in the Canary Islands Registry of Foundations under number 349, which works to respond to the needs and demands of people and families affected by breast cancer and raise awareness of the importance of breast cancer early detection.
Carrera por la Vida—Walk for Life Foundation's financial resources depend on volunteer activities and donations from institutions, social groups, and companies.
The Foundation develops its activity in the following areas:
• Attention to people affected by breast cancer and their families through professional training and educational workshops, establishing opportunities for meeting, coexistence among equals and care support through the delivery of therapeutic equipment.
• Awareness-raising, dissemination, and sensitization of breast cancer in the society. Breast self-examination and adherence to medical appointments as a means of early detection.
• Collaboration and financial support to breast cancer research teams and studies, along with projects and initiatives run by other institutions, foundations and associations aimed at improving the quality of life of people affected by breast and other types of cancer.
The Walk for Life Foundation, created in the Canary Islands, is a charitable initiative that works to respond to the needs and demands of individuals and families affected by breast cancer, and to raise awareness of the importance of early detection of breast cancer.
For the Walk for Life Foundation, the Great Pink Duck Race has two main goals:
First, through the adoption of Pink Ducks, we will fund the first PINK SCHOLARSHIPS for university students to specialize in oncology-related fields such as psycho-oncology, oncology nutrition, or oncology physiotherapy, improving care for people with breast cancer.
Secondly, it aims to raise awareness about the importance of early detection through breast self-examination and annual mammograms.
