Welcome to "Pat's Striders for Hope's" PanCAN PurpleStride Team Fundraising Page!

Anna, Ken and Donna want to help pancreatic cancer patients find hope – and we need you to do it!

We’re walking for Pat Gipple, loving mother, wife and friend, who passed away from the disease in July 2020. In addition to Pat, we're striding for Susanna Smoot and Robert Lappe. Susanna's journey ended too soon but her memory lives on! Robert is fighting here and now, and we want to stand with him by participating in the ultimate walk to end pancreatic cancer, PanCAN PurpleStride, on Saturday, April 27, 2024.

PurpleStride participants raise money to fund vital research that can bring new treatment options to patients; free, personalized, one-to-one support through PanCAN Patient Services; and more.

Here’s where you come in! 

We’ve set a fundraising goal of $1500 – the more money we raise, the bigger impact we make – and would be profoundly grateful for your donation. A gift of any size will help patients and families facing a pancreatic cancer diagnosis.  

Want to help in a bigger way? We’d love for you to join our team! Just click the Register button at the top of this page to get started. Register for free, raise $50 and you’ll receive an official PanCAN PurpleStride 2024 T-shirt!

Let’s show everyone impacted by pancreatic cancer that we’re fighting for them – thank you for your support!
