VNG Purple Rose

Greater Philadelphia Walk

We're fundraising in memory of Vanessa.

Team VNG Purple Rose is back for our 6th year participating in Lustgarten's Walk for Pancreatic Cancer Research to celebrate the progress that has been made and to power tomorrow's research.

We are looking to YOU to help support our team and embrace Lustgarten's vision of transforming pancreatic cancer into a curable disease. There are many ways outside of fundraising to support our mission. Please consider joining our team and walking with us on Oct 24. Your support means everything to provide hope to thousands of families like ours that have been touched by this 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.

Let's honor Vanessa's legacy and help play a role to end pancreatic cancer for GOOD!
