Be a Part of the Cure Walk
Come celebrate with us at “Be A Part of the Cure Walk” when the UAMS Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute hosts its 3rd annual Cancer walk honoring ALL Cancer patients, their families and loved ones. Join us to raise awareness about cancer through camaraderie and learn about cancer prevention, screenings and new therapeutic services available
throughout Arkansas communities.
THANK YOU to over 1,000 participants who came together at our last annual walk in the fight against cancer. It is with your participation, your energy and your support we raised over $242,000 to advance cancer research in Arkansas for better care and to take leading steps to find a Cure.
