What is Steps for CancerSupport:
Steps for CancerSupport is a fitness and fundraising challenge, bringing together teams and individuals through exercise to raise critical funds that allow ESCA CancerSupport to provide free cancer support services to clients in Switzerland.
Join us on Thursday 24 March at our open house and kickoff event, March for CancerSupport. Steps for CS will start on Thursday 24 March and end on Tuesday 12 April.
About the Challenge:
Every step, every day, everyone together.
Every year, over 19 million people worldwide are diagnosed with cancer*. Together we can help. We will take 19 million steps every day for 20 days to raise awareness and funds to make sure no one faces cancer alone.
*A note on the maths: The IARC estimates that 19.3 million people worldwide were diagnosed with cancer in 2020. 19.3 million steps for 20 days is 386 million steps total, our collective challenge goal.
