What Moves Us

"Our father lost his battle with lung cancer in 2016. Walking every year is one of the ways we keep his memory alive. He’s our inspiration!”

"My first Free to Breathe walk was in 2011, after my uncle lost his 10-month battle with lung cancer. Our family history with lung cancer spans five generations, and my mother celebrated 20 years as a lung cancer survivor in 2018. I’m motivated to do more every year and my actions are becoming a lifetime of impact on saving lives and increasing survival.”
