No PanCAN PurpleStride event in your area? Want to celebrate PurpleStride on a day other than Saturday, April 25, 2026? Register for PurpleStride Your Way and be a part of our biggest community event of the year — wherever you are and in any way you would like!

PurpleStride is an inspirational day to honor those we lost, celebrate survivors and turn the nation purple!

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.

With PurpleStride Your Way, you can get creative and participate in any way you’d like. Past participants have invited family and friends to walk around a neighborhood park, organized trivia nights, hosted bake sales and planned other community fundraising events. The only limitation is your imagination — get out there and make it meaningful!

The best way to get involved is to become a Team Captain and invite your family and friends to join your team and set their own fundraising goals. We’ll give you all the tools you need!

Register for free and access your PurpleStride Dashboard today! Your Dashboard is your one-stop shop for all your PurpleStride fundraising needs. From creating your Personal Fundraising Page and connecting to Facebook Fundraiser, to pre-written messages you can send your family and friends, your PurpleStride Dashboard has you covered.
