2024 Cancer Survivorship Walkathon
Inspired by the stories of cancer survivors from Ochsner LSU Health Shreveport—Feist-Weiller Cancer Center and moved to make a difference in the local community, medical students from LSU Health Shreveport in 2022 started a weekly walking group for survivors and their supporters. In June 2022, the students joined forces with Feist-Weiller to hold the first-ever Cancer Survivorship Walkathon to celebrate survivors, those in treatment, and a community of supporters in North Louisiana while raising funds supporting survivorship.
Proceeds from Walkathon benefit the Wellness & Integrative Medicine Program at Ochsner LSU Health Shreveport – Feist-Weiller Cancer Center. This program includes extensive support for Feist-Weiller Cancer Center Survivors, including resources on mind, menu, and movement to improve patient outcomes as they transition from treatment to a healthy lifestyle after cancer.
