What is Walk Away Cancer ?​
WalkAway Cancer is an awareness walk that started in 2014 and has since grown into Nigeria's largest cancer fundraiser and a powerful advocacy platform for cancer patients and their caregivers. It also serves as a networking opportunity for cancer care professionals and a day of fun and exercise for the whole family. ​​​

CEO's MESSAGE
The civil society space is more vibrant,
with each addressing various cancers
across the spectrum of disease. We have
hosted local and international meetings,
embarked on new research, supported
various fundraising initiatives and so
much more. The impact of all these
initiatives remains one- to lower the
incidence of cancer in Nigeria.
Looking ahead, I am excited to share that
our upcoming 5KM Walk Campaign,
scheduled for October, promises to be an
extraordinary event. This campaign is not
just about walking; it's about taking
strides towards a future where cancer
holds no power over our loved ones. It's a
declaration of unity, a celebration of
survivorship, and a stand against this
formidable foe.
As we lace up our shoes and prepare to
walk away cancer this year, we will be
raising awareness, funds and hope.
support to those in the throes of their
battles.
The 5KM Walk Campaign
embodies our collective strength and
determination to make a positive impact
in the fight against cancer.
I invite each and every one of you to join
us in this journey . Whether you're a
survivor, a caregiver, a healthcare
professional, or simply someone who
cares deeply;
together we can change the narrative.
With gratitude and anticipation,
