Up to $380,000 raised by Steppin’ Out In Pink
Event has raised $4.6 million in 11 years
So far, it’s raised $4.6 million for breast cancer research and testing.
Steppin’ Out In Pink capped off its 11th year Saturday with over 6,000 participants raising over $380,000.
That money “goes for research,” Gundersen’s Debbie Kroner said. “We do patient database research. We have research labs … on the UW-L campus.
“We also give money for mammograms for uninsured and under insured men and women in our area.”
More than 300 breast cancer survivors took part, which Kroner says makes it extra special, as they can share their stories and bond over experiences.
