JAMESTOWN, N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – The 14th Annual Running of the Pink was held on Saturday, June 5th in a triumphant return to both an in-person and virtual event.
The event has raised money for Women’s Way and No Excuses, both programs focused on eliminating barriers to breast and cervical cancer screenings. Organizer Tara Kapp reports this year’s run raised a grand total of $28,933.31.
“That includes Casey Stoudt’s heartfelt match of $10,000,” Kapp added.
Kapp gave several nods to those involved with the run.
“A special thank you to Robin [Iszler] and the staff at Central Valley Health District for donating your slice of the event proceeds directly to No Excuses through [the] Jamestown Regional Medical Center. Women’s Way through CVH continues to receive federal funding to assist those in need of necessary screenings so with their coffers full, they opted to donate their portion,” Kapp stated.
Kapp thanked everyone who dedicated time and money through volunteerism, sponsorship, participation and/or general donations.
“You make a difference,” she said. “You touch lives around you in a most positive way. You continue to join our army in the fight against breast and cervical cancer.”
