Miles For MBC & Kelly Marie : Howard Beach Color Walk
Miles For MBC & Kelly Marie is the sixth annual Howard Beach #LightUpMBC Color Walk held at Frank M. Charles Memorial Park Baseball Field in Queens, NY. The event centers on a community color run and walk to raise funds for metastatic breast cancer research through METAvivor Research & Support. The course includes a 3-mile route that begins and ends at the park meeting point near 98 St. and 165 Ave.
Participants are met with a color powder toss at the start and color stations along the course where volunteers apply color powder or spray. The event program includes announcements, a warmup period, and a raffle with winners announced after the walk. The event page shares stories from local families affected by metastatic breast cancer and facts about the disease, including recurrence and survival statistics.
Registration options listed on the event page allow individual entries, team creation, and joining existing teams. Additional participation formats noted include fundraising pages, donations for those who cannot attend, and sponsorship opportunities. The event report shows a small participant count and initial funds raised for the named fundraising organization. One hundred percent of net proceeds are allocated to MBC research through METAvivor.
