Those of us who knew and loved Ned Barnes were shocked and heartbroken at his diagnosis of pancreatic cancer at the age of 44, and the quick progression of his disease. There aren't words to make sense of this loss.

We are putting together a team to walk/run in his memory, and to raise money for research and support for the pancreatic cancer community. Let's gather in Washington DC on Saturday, April 25 and celebrate Ned by contributing to the cause of helping others facing this terrible disease.

To make the biggest difference, we have set an ambitious team fundraising goal and need your help! Will you donate to our fundraiser? You can donate directly to the team (which will not go toward a specific team member?s goal) or you can select a team member and donate toward that person's fundraising goal (which will also support the team's goal)!

Want to join us at PurpleStride? Now is the time! Join our team by registering for free (click REGISTER above!) and take steps with us. Everyone who registers and raises or self-donates $100 or more will earn an official PanCAN PurpleStride T-shirt! 

Again, thank you for supporting us and everyone affected by pancreatic cancer. We are grateful for you and your support!
