Breast Cancer Awareness Month

In support of Breast Cancer awareness month we volunteered for the Making Strides Breast Cancer Walk in Sacramento. Special thanks to Sharon Pinzon at Franklin Templeton for coordinating participants of the Power of Pink Team.
We had a great time at the walk being part of the sea of volunteers, walkers, and survivors. The route around the Capitol was very scenic. It was nice to take over the streets through Old Sacramento and the K Street Mall before the hustle and bustle of daily traffic.
Here are some pictures from the event.

It’s never too late to donate to Making Strides. You can donate as little as $5.
I walked in our “Making Strides” which was the beginning of October.
I think I’ve done it the last 7 years.

@Greeneyezz: That’s great ZZ! We enjoy this walk and of course we believe it’s a great cause. It’s an emotional event too with people walking with cancer as a survivor or walking for a loved one who has passed. Definitely a feel good walk.
Rolando, thank you for participating. This was my 3rd year doing this walk and the feeling you have while doing it and afterwards is just amazing. I’m so glad you and your wife were able to join the team this year. Promise I will try to be a lot more together next year.
Thanks again!
@Sharon Pinzon: Hi Sharon, thank you for coordinating our team. You did a great job and we look forward to doing it again next year. We felt good for such a great cause.
