Welcome to the Stride and Go Seek PurpleStride Team Fundraising Page!

Hello Family and Friends! 

Michael Hansell started this team a number of years ago when he lost his mother to pancreatic cancer.  The Harrells participated as a way to show support to the Hansell Family (His wife Lori was a coworker friend of Patrick at the time).  Then, a few years later, I lost my grandfather to pancreatic cancer followed four years later by the loss of my grandmother to the same thing. And the stories of our loved ones were the same:  diagnostic tools weren't available to catch the cancer in a timely manner and the time from diagnosis to the end wasn't enough.  And too much suffering occurred.  I'm working with Mike Hansell to build our team to take steps to end pancreatic cancer at PanCAN PurpleStride on Saturday, April 29, 2023.

We want to make the biggest impact on the lives of pancreatic cancer patients – and we need your help to do that!

PanCAN PurpleStride is the number one way PanCAN raises money to fund vital research that can bring new treatment options to patients, and gives them free, personalized one-to-one support through PanCAN Patient Services.

Here’s where you come in! We’ve set an ambitious fundraising goal – because the more money we raise, the bigger impact we make – and would appreciate a gift of any size to help us get there.  

PanCAN PurpleStride is for everyone, and we’d love for you to join our team! Just click the Register button at the top of this page and follow a few easy steps to get set up. And anyone who registers and raises $50 will receive an official PanCAN PurpleStride 2023 T-shirt!

Can we count on you to get us one step closer to the day where pancreatic cancer patients don’t just survive but thrive?

Patients and families need us now more than ever.

Thank you for your support!
