TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — The Tuscaloosa Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. invites members of the community to join together in support of breast cancer awareness at its Annual Red Wears Pink Breast Cancer Walk on Saturday, October 17, 2026, from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at the Tuscaloosa Career & Technology Academy Track, 2800 Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard, Tuscaloosa, AL 35401.

The annual walk brings the community together to raise awareness, encourage education and honor the strength and resilience of those whose lives have been impacted by breast cancer. Participants will walk in solidarity with survivors, those currently undergoing treatment, caregivers and families, while also remembering those whose lives have been lost to the disease.

The event emphasizes the importance of breast health awareness, early detection and supporting one another throughout the breast cancer journey. Community members, families, organizations and supporters are encouraged to attend and wear pink as the Tuscaloosa community comes together for a morning centered on awareness, encouragement, support and empowerment.
