๐๐พ **This October, let's walk with purpose.** ๐พ๐
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and we wanted to share a couple of ways our All Things DOG community can show support.
**WALK WHERE YOU ARE โ October 24**
Susan G. Komen's "MORE THAN PINK Walk โ Walk Where You Are" gives you the opportunity to participate wherever you are. Choose your own route, grab your favorite walking buddy, and get moving in support of those affected by breast cancer.
๐ถ And yesโฆ we think your dog makes a pretty great walking buddy.

๐ **LOOKING FOR LOCAL SUPPORT?**
We also want to introduce you to "Cancer Action", a Kansas City-area nonprofit that has been helping people living with cancer and their families for more than 60 years.
With an office right here in Independence, Cancer Action provides practical, emotional and financial support to local cancer patients โ including assistance with medications, medical equipment, nutritional needs, transportation-related expenses and more. Most of their services are provided at no cost to those they serve.
๐ **Learn more or make a donation:**

Whether you take part in the walk, make a donation, share some encouragement, or simply take a few minutes to learn more, **every step toward supporting those affected by cancer matters.** ๐
And if your four-legged friend joins you for your October walk, we'd love to see it! ๐พ๐
