Dear Friends and Family, 

We, along with your help, are taking steps to end pancreatic cancer at PanCAN PurpleStride on Saturday, April 29, 2023 in remembrance of Bill Prather; a loving husband, father, friend, and as of January 25th of this year, a grandfather who was taken from us too soon.

He was a fighter. When life through him curveballs he didn't quit. He merely saw adversity as something to overcome, and he did. Yet, he was never given the chance to fight cancer because by the time he showed symptoms and was diagnosed, it was too late.

We want to make the biggest impact on the lives of pancreatic cancer patients and their families with new innovative early detection and treatment approaches – 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! 

Rhonda, Alex, Courtney, Chris and Kenna
