Miles of Hope: Walking Together Toward Awareness and Healing

On this heartwarming episode of Raise Nation Radio, host Dawn Lego sits down with Pari Forood, Executive Director of the Miles of Hope Breast Cancer Foundation, to honor the stories, strength, and spirit behind breast cancer awareness. From financial assistance to patient advocacy, Pari shares how her small but mighty team turns compassion into action – empowering survivors, supporting families, and funding education programs that create real change in the fight against breast cancer.

Together, Dawn and Pari remind listeners that awareness doesn’t stop when October (breast cancer awareness month) ends. It’s a year-round commitment to health, community, and early detection.

Tune in to hear how one foundation’s miles of effort have turned into miles of hope. And ladies—consider this your friendly reminder: please schedule your annual mammogram today.
