STEPS FOR HOPE Walk

STEPS FOR HOPE Walk


Join us for STEPS FOR HOPE on Saturday, May 2nd, 2026!

Thank you to all who joined and us at our 28th Steps For Hope Walk/Fun Run at Creve Coeur Park to celebrate those impacted by cancer, honor loved ones, and support Cancer Support Community of Greater St. Louis!

We appreciate the generosity of the 35 sponsors, numerous in-kind partners, and more than 500 participants who joined us to celebrate those in our community impacted by cancer. Together we raised over $175,000 to support our mission.

As a supporter of Cancer Support Community of Greater St. Louis, you've ensured we can continue to provide HOPE along with emotional support, educational resources, social connections and a place of understanding. Thank you for being part of our community!

Each year, the Peggy Nelson Esperanza Award is presented to an individual or company who exemplifies kindness, gives back to their community, and brings positive energy to the world, just like Peggy did. This year, we were pleased to honor Waterway Carwash!
