CBA Members and Staff Participate in American Cancer Society’s Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Event

CBA Members and Staff gathered together in Hartford's Bushnell Park for the start of the walk.

On October 5, over 20 members and staff from the Connecticut Bar Association rallied behind the fight against breast cancer by participating in the American Cancer Society’s Making Strides Against Breast Cancer: Making Strides of Connecticut walk in Hartford’s Bushnell Park. In the weeks leading up to the event, CBA members also contributed over $1,400 in donations to help the American Cancer Society fund breast cancer research, provide patient support, and advance its advocacy efforts.

The CBA members and staff that partook in the walk gathered at Bushnell Park at 10:00 a.m. where they were joined by hundreds of other participants from across the state. Following the walk, the CBA group gathered at Hartford’s Urban Lodge Brewing to enjoy a post-event celebration.
