Evan's Buffalo Soldiers

Westchester Walk

WE'RE FUNDRAISING FOR...EVAN SMITH AND ANYONE ELSE TOUCHED BY PANCREATIC CANCER

We are participating again in memory of our brother, Evan Smith and anyone else touched by Pancreatic Cancer in the Lustgarten Pancreatic Research Walk on June 8, 2025 at Westchester Community College at 9:30am.  Evan passed away from Pancreatic Cancer on November 15, 2023 at the age of 39 years old and in his honor, we want to raise awareness and funds for Pancreatic Cancer Research.

Please join our team either by walking with us and/or by just donating. Help us raise funds to end this terrible disease. Our team is participating in Lustgarten's Walk for Pancreatic Cancer Research to celebrate the progress that has been made and to power tomorrow's research. Support our team and embrace Lustgarten's vision of transforming pancreatic cancer into a curable disease. Join our team, donate to our team, provide hope to thousands of families touched by this devastating disease.

Why Lustgarten? They are the nation’s largest private funder of pancreatic cancer research. Thanks to separate funding of administrative expenses, 100% of our fundraising and your donation funds pancreatic cancer research - research led by Lustgarten and powered by you! With your support, we will raise more money for research advancements than we ever could alone.

So sorry to hear this news about Evan. He and Mikaela were my neighbors several years ago in Brooklyn and he was the most good-natured, kind and friendly person. This is a very nice tribute to him.
