Local action. Nationwide impact. This is PanCAN PurpleStride, the ultimate walk to end pancreatic cancer!

On Saturday, April 25, 2026, take steps with survivors, families, caregivers, friends, physicians and researchers at our biggest community event of the year. Every dollar you raise will help create a world where everyone affected by pancreatic cancer will thrive.

PanCAN PurpleStride is an inspirational day to celebrate survivors, honor those we lost and turn the nation purple! The energy is electric, and there's a real sense of hope and community. It’s a reminder that we’re all in this together, making a difference one step at a time.

Check out the event village, grab a snack, tell us why you Stride by writing on the tribute wall, take pictures with your family and friends in the photo area, and be inspired during the opening ceremony before you set off on the ultimate walk to end pancreatic cancer.

Join more than 60,000 people nationwide to support and honor everyone affected by the disease. It’s a family-friendly day filled with fun, hope and the power of community. Join us by registering for free today!

No PurpleStride in your area? Take steps to end pancreatic cancer your own way by registering for PanCAN PurpleStride Your Way and seeing our recommendations for planning your own day.

You can register for free as an individual Strider, a Strider joining an existing team, or a Team Captain. Returning Team Captains can even bring back your teams from last year!

Your participation and fundraising help those affected by pancreatic cancer in your area by:

• Offering free, personalized support and resources through PanCAN Patient Services.
• Providing molecular testing and personalized treatment recommendations at no cost through PanCAN's Know Your Tumor®.
• Supporting PanCAN’s research priorities of finding early detection methods and new treatments.
• Creating hope — because a five-year survival rate of 13% is just not acceptable.

A world where everyone affected by pancreatic cancer thrives starts with YOU! Your participation and fundraising keep PanCAN’s vital programs available so no one has to navigate this journey on their own. Thank you!
