3.1 Miles. One Powerful Why.
October 17-24 | Virtual 5K
For some, it’s for the mother, sister, daughter, friend, or loved one impacted by breast cancer. For others, it’s for themselves, their health, their family, or their future.
This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, For the Breast of Us is inviting you to move for your why with the FOR HER Virtual 5K, a Breast Cancer Awareness Month event supporting Women of Color impacted by breast cancer.
From October 17–24, complete 3.1 miles wherever you are. Run it. Walk it. Run/walk it. Hit the treadmill. You choose your place and your pace.
Because your pace doesn’t matter.
Your why does.
FUNDRAISE

MOVE
Complete 3.1 miles in one outing anytime between October 17–24. Run, walk, run/walk, or use a treadmill.

$40 Registration | $250 Suggested Fundraising Goal | $25,000 Community Goal
Breast Cancer Awareness Month is filled with pink ribbons, walks, and awareness. FOR HER is about turning that awareness into action.
Every registration and every dollar raised supports For the Breast of Us and our work to uplift Women of Color impacted by breast cancer through advocacy, community, and education.
Your miles help us continue creating culturally relevant resources, community programs, educational experiences, advocacy training, and spaces where Women of Color impacted by breast cancer can feel seen, heard, supported, and celebrated.
You’re not just moving 3.1 miles.
You’re moving the mission forward.

SUMBIT MY FINISH
We’re challenging every FOR HER participant to set a personal goal of raising $250.
And it’s easier than you think.
10 people × $25 = $250
Share your fundraising page with your family, friends, coworkers, and community. Tell them who you’re moving for and invite them to be part of your journey.
Every dollar brings us closer to our $25,000 FOR HER goal and helps FTBOU continue showing up for Women of Color impacted by breast cancer.
Your why is yours.
Move in honor of someone you love.
Move in memory of someone you miss.
Move alongside someone facing breast cancer.
Move for your health.
Move for your family.
Move for your future.
Or move simply FOR YOU.
Whatever your reason, bring it with you for every one of those 3.1 miles.
No! Walk, run, run/walk, or complete your 3.1 miles on a treadmill. Move in whatever way works best for you.
Anywhere! Your neighborhood, favorite trail, local park, track, treadmill, or wherever you feel comfortable.
Complete your official 3.1 miles in one outing anytime between October 17–24, 2026.
