How Your Support Makes a Difference
Proceeds from the 2019 Liz Hurley Ribbon Run will enable the Foundation to purchase a new 3D tomosynthesis mammography machine for not-for-profit Madison Hospital Breast Center, making breast cancer easier to detect, particularly in dense breast tissue.
The Huntsville Hospital Breast Center is now fully 3D capable thanks to previous Ribbon Run proceeds!
Huntsville Hospital is a not-for-profit regional hospital that receives no tax support. Your support truly matters and makes a difference for patients!
About the Liz Hurley Breast Cancer Fund
Thanks to generous supporters of the Liz Hurley Breast Cancer Fund at Huntsville Hospital Foundation, more than $5 million has been raised to support breast cancer awareness programs and to equip Huntsville Hospital and Madison Hospital Breast Centers with the latest diagnostic technology.
WAFF 48 news anchor Liz Hurley created the fund in 1999 following her own fight against breast cancer. The Liz Hurley Breast Cancer Fund exists to give women the best chance for early detection and survival. Every runner plays a role in ensuring we can meet this goal.
