On Thursday, Oct. 17, the AdventHealth Gordon Foundation hosted the AdventHealth Race Around the Rec 5K at the Calhoun City Recreation Department. In addition to the 5K race, a Children’s Fun Run also took place.
The AdventHealth Race Around the Rec 5K is one of the many events hosted by the AdventHealth Gordon Foundation to raise money for various causes. This year, all proceeds benefited breast cancer services at AdventHealth Gordon.
One in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime. In Gordon County alone, 180 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year. The AdventHealth Gordon Foundation is excited to lead the charge in raising funds for women’s services. The foundation’s goal is to fill a significant void by providing our community with additional access to breast cancer screenings and increased breast health education at the new Edna Owens Breast Center.
The Edna Owens Breast Center streamlines care and provides the community with a one-stop, patient-focused center for the rapid diagnosis and comprehensive treatment of breast diseases. The comprehensive breast and women’s imaging center promotes women’s health in our community by providing increased access to care, promoting breast health, easing the breast cancer journey and providing education and outreach on women’s health issues.
“We are thankful for our sponsors and our community for helping make this event a success,” said Garrett Nudd, foundation president and director of marketing at AdventHealth Gordon. “Their support allows us to make a positive impact on breast cancer services offered through our hospital.”
