Welcome to Our PanCAN PurpleStride Team Fundraising Page!

There has never been a more capable, talented, honest, and hardworking

 person in the history of well…..wherever Walter Ekard was at any given moment.

He fights for every good cause and treats everyone with respect.

On any occasion, Walter is the one that brings calm and reason to the

event.  

His fight to survive "Pancreatic Cancer" should be a clarion call to all of us to support finding a cure.

Please help us, his friends from Mt. Miguel in raising funds in his name.

We’re taking steps at the ultimate walk to end pancreatic cancer, PanCAN PurpleStride, on Saturday, April 26, 2025.

Where: DeAnza Cove at Mission Bay Park, 3000 N. Mission Bay Drive, San Diego 92110

When: Event Village opens at 7:30 a.m., Opening ceremony 8:30 a.m.

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 an ambitious fundraising goal – because 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.  

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