Join us for PanCAN PurpleStride 2026, happening Saturday, April 25, 2026, at events across the country!

PurpleStride is the ultimate walk to end pancreatic cancer. It’s a family-friendly day filled with fun, hope and the power of community.

Your participation and fundraising help those affected by pancreatic cancer in your area by:

Offering free, personalized support and resources through PanCAN Patient Services.
Providing molecular testing and personalized treatment recommendations at no cost through PanCAN's Know Your Tumor®.
Supporting PanCAN’s research priorities of finding early detection methods and new treatments.
Creating hope — because a five-year survival rate of 13% is just not acceptable.

Your PurpleStride fundraising gives people like Betty the assurance to make informed choices about her care.

“I believe that my interactions with Patient Services gave me confidence in my decision making. I do not and did not second-guess my decisions.”
— Betty Cole, Survivor

Serving as PurpleStride Team Captain of the Yes We Xan team has been a way for me to harness my energy to help my beloved son, Xan, fight pancreatic cancer.

There's a number of other terms I could use to describe myself and our pancreatic cancer journey. But these are primary, and this is the reason I'm sharing my story. Our story.

Like many others, my involvement with PanCAN began with the loss of a loved one. My brother, Jim, just three days after his 60th birthday and only 27 days after his diagnosis, passed away from pancreatic cancer.
