Every September, in honor of Pediatric Awareness Month, the Foundation organizes a 5K walk/run.

All proceeds raised from the event benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and Lizzy’s Walk of Faith Foundation.
On Friday, September 29th, we will host our 9th Annual Super Sam Foundation Hope Gala! We do hope you’ll join us for cocktails, dinner, raffles, and a silent auction!
Making Strides has always been more than just a walk, it’s a movement. We are making it easier for anyone, anywhere to make an impact. We know the future can be free from breast cancer. We’re asking you to join the movement and sign up to save lives.
