Make a SPLASH Event Details
We invite you to participate walking 11 miles of pristine California coastline, most of it wild and protected by difficult access, all of it filled with beauty and awe in a gratitude walk inspired by cancer survivorship, designed to empower individuals through networking, and educational sessions on Skin Cancer and Melanoma. The walk concludes with an After Party that features amazing food, live entertainment, and auction items (art pieces from local artisans, sports gear & memorabilia, and baskets filled with donations from our retail sponsors).
There is no cure for cancer without trials and research, and there are no trials and research without money.
Your sponsorship helps us increase public awareness about skin cancer prevention and detection, and to support UCSD research efforts. Proceeds from the event will fund research aimed at enhancing treatment outcomes for cancer patients.
