Description
Join us for the 8th Annual A Walk in Her Shoes, a powerful 2-mile community cancer awareness walk hosted by My Sister’s Keeper-Cleveland. This year’s event will be held on the inspiring campus of Case Western Reserve University to celebrate our meaningful new partnership with the students of CWRU, who recently launched the My Sister’s Keeper CWRU Chapter to help advance our mission through campus and community engagement.
We’re also honored to have the continued support of Councilman Kevin Conwell, who joins us for the third consecutive year to uplift this grassroots effort and help expand our impact across Greater Cleveland.
🌸 A Celebration of Life, Partnership & Community
A Walk in Her Shoes is more than a walk—it’s a celebration of strength, healing, and togetherness. We gather to honor the journeys of cancer warriors, raise awareness about early detection, and provide access to life-changing resources.
Can’t walk? No problem. Attendees who prefer not to walk are welcome to stay at the main event site at Freiberger Field to enjoy live music, shop with local vendors, and join in fun activities like line dancing. This event is for everyone—whether you’re walking, dancing, or simply showing up in support.
