The Susan G. Komen three day walk for breast cancer raises money to allow women and men access to early detection, treatment, and research. The walk takes place in San Diego, California, November 15 – 17, 2019. "Each of our team members walks for a different reason, but together we know we are stronger and making a difference in the fight against breast cancer," says Michelle Lonaker, Executive Director of the Heffernan Foundation. "We will continue our journey, one step at a time because every dollar makes a difference." The Ta Ta Sisterhood team currently has over 30 members to take on the challenge and 50 percent of their overall goal raised.

Heffernan Foundation is holding a fundraiser in Northern and Southern California to help raise money for the Susan G. Komen Foundation for breast cancer. To assist in supporting the Ta Ta Sisterhood team, join us at Wine Thieves in Lafayette, California on October 12, 2019 or at the Golden Road Brewery in Anaheim, California on October 23, 2019, for drinks and appetizers.
