For some, sharing their story is an integral part of the healing journey,” said Eileen Flaherty. “My sons, Jack and Grady, my family, my extended friend group and my rock-star girlfriends rallied for me these last 2 years. I hope fans will rally with the Cardinals at this year’s MORE THAN PINK Walk ™as we raise funds to support Komen’s mission to save lives and end breast cancer.”

Since 2009, the Cardinals have supported Susan G. Komen’s fight against breast cancer through their annual race/walk. Over the years, fans on the Cardinals Team have helped raise over $720,000 in support of a cure.
