We are a dedicated group of volunteers whose lives have been deeply affected by lung cancer. Our goal is to raise awareness of this silent disease and to raise funds for research into treatment therapies and early detection tools. Together we CAN make a difference.

In 2006, two lung cancer survivors, the late Richard Kaufman and the now ten-year lung cancer survivor Geri Norris, started the first walk in Boston. With the support of a small group of family, friends, and volunteers also touched by lung cancer, their grassroots movement has raised over $700,000 for lung cancer research. 100% of these proceeds have been for the benefit of LUNGevity Foundation, which has awarded several research grants to researchers at Boston Hospitals.
