What is Walk for the Cause?

The Soroptimist International of Albany's annual event Walk for the Cause is a fundraiser focused on raising funds for the detection and treatment of breast cancer, as well as providing support services for other diseases affecting women. Join us as we unite as a community, celebrate 30 years of empowering women, and make a positive impact on the lives of those in need.

This year marks our 30th anniversary and we want to make it our best yet by surpassing our goal of over $1 million donated in total!
