Welcome to the National Capital Area Walk Team page! 

On Saturday, May 5, 2012, people across the country will be joining the Bladder Cancer Advocacy Network to Walk for Bladder Cancer.  Everyone walking for bladder cancer has their story.  Ours began two years ago when at 28 years old, Jamie was diagnosed with bladder cancer.  Bladder cancer was something we had barely heard of, and certainly something we knew nothing about.  Through the help of the Bladder Cancer Advocacy Network, we were able to get the information, support, and help we needed to get through this challenging time. 

We were honored to be selected to co-chair the National Walk for the Washington D.C. area.  We will be walking to raise money for the Bladder Cancer Advocacy Network (BCAN) and their programs supporting bladder cancer research and education. There are far to many stories such as ours, and we are looking to give back to this wonderful organization so that others can be aware of this disease and progress will me made towards prevention and treatments. 

I hope you will join us by making a donation, walking with me, and helping raise awareness of this disease. 

Please consider making a donation right now.  The process is fast, easy, and secure, and your donation will make a difference.
