Thank you for your gift in support of On P.A.R. with Cancer!
Cancer is a disease plaguing the lives of most individuals. Thus, it is a problem that is not only applicable to the residents of our local community of Little Havana, but more so at a global scale. However, with the proper motivation and intensified efforts, the incessant effects of cancer can be halted.
The On P.A.R. with Cancer initiative is a project consisting of three integral components centered on cancer Prevention, Awareness and Research (“P.A.R.”). As the Miami Dade College Beta Kappa Iota chapter of Phi Theta Kappa, our vision for our Honors in Action initiative, a community-based project, will revolve around this multifaceted cancer awareness campaign.
The initiative will consist of multiple workshops/seminars in many different topics relating to cancer and also there will be three main events. The first event being the On P.A.R. with Cancer 5k Walk, which is set to be held on October 6th, 2018. Professor Diego Tibaquirá’s 52.4 miles run around the Grand Canyon will be our second event and is scheduled to take place on October 13th, 2018. Lastly, the On P.A.R. with Cancer Festival for the Cures will not only be our signature event, but culminate a semester’s worth of academic and informative forums. The festival will take place on November 2nd, 2018 at the Miami Dade College InterAmerican campus.
100% of all funds collected will be used to further strengthen the fight against cancer as they will be donated amongst several cancer foundations sharing the same mission.
