Hello friends, family, and supporters,
Barry Friedman was diagnosed with Stage IV Pancreatic cancer at Thanksgiving 2022. Unfortunately, Barry lost his battle on September 11, 2023 with his family surrounding him in love and support.
We all need to fight this horrible disease together and find a cure so that future generations don't have to go through what my dad went through.
Our team is taking steps to end pancreatic cancer at PanCAN PurpleStride on Saturday, April 26, 2025.
We want to significantly impact the lives of pancreatic cancer patients – and we need your help to do that!
PanCAN PurpleStride is the #1 way PanCAN raises money to fund vital research that can bring new treatment options to patients. It also 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 – we would appreciate a gift of any size to help us reach our goal and positively impact the mission of the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network - every little bit helps.
PanCAN PurpleStride is for everyone, and we’d love for you to join us! 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 2025 T-shirt! You can join or donate on our team page.
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!
