communities, organizations and individuals to address and bring
awareness to a collective goal to defeat breast cancer. District Photographer Lion Dimple with Lions at Breast Cancer
Strides Walk
District 20-K1 Lions Clubs donated over five thousand dollars
($5,000.00) and earned the designation as “Sponsor.“

Hundreds of Brooklynites showed up with their sashes and
posters celebrating their personal accomplishments as survivors,

or carrying the name of someone who is still fighting the
disease or those who have lost their fight.

The Strides Walk started at Coney Island Boardwalk and
Maimonides Park. Participants walked along the Coney Island District 20-K1 Lions at Breast Cancer Strides Walk
boardwalk to complete four miles.
There were many tents set up to share resources and valuable
information.
