Taking place in 14 cities nationwide, the Breast Cancer 3 Day is a 3 Day, 60 mile walk that provides an opportunity to educate thousands of people about breast cancer, including the importance of early detection.
    Organized in 2005 with just 28 women, Team Tutus raised over $90,000 and became friends for life! Promising to continue their friendships and to continue walking,The 2008  Tutu Nation consists of 104 Atlanta members to date,  with teams walking in Atlanta, San Diego, Washington DC &Tampa. We even have 2 members that are walking in ALL 14 Cities! To date, the total monies raised by teamTutus to fight Breast Cancer is over $615,000.00!!!!!
  The 2006 Tutus consisted of 75 men & women and raised over $230,000 making us the #2 Team in the entire Nation! We range in age from 16 to 75  and come from all walks of life! We have a single unifying thread and that is to Find A Cure!
    Growing even larger in 2007, Team Tutus was 125 strong! Our 3 year cumulative total is now well over ONE HALF MILLION DOLLARS with our goal now being to reach ONE MILLION!
    We need your help in order to do that! We have LOTS of fun events that you can attend, or perhaps you'd like to buy a ticket to WIN A FORD MUSTANG! All those events are covered on our events pages. Please browse around our site.
    First, let us tell you a little more about the Breast Cancer 3 Day Walk & What we do!
    The Breast Cancer 3-Day Walk is a 20 mile a day walk throughout the streets of it's host city. We live in a 3-Day Camp! We sleep in tents, shower in tractor trailer trucks and we have all perfected the "porta-pot squat"! We leave our families, our HAIRDRYERS & makeup behind and concentrate on the issues of Breast Cancer! It's a celebration of life! Of Survival!
  As well as the commitment to walk, each walker commits to raising a minimum of $2200.The 2007 3-Day Walk raised over 86 million dollars nationwide.The money funds research & treatment. As the primary beneficiary of the Breast Cancer 3-Day, 85% of funds raised goes to Susan G Komen for the Cure with 15% going to the National Philanthropic Trust.For more info on these organizations go to www.The3Day.org or call 1-800-996-3DAY.
      The stastics are alarming with 1 in 8 women developing Breast Cancer in her lifetime. Early detection and awareness is still our best defense so our mothers, daughters, sisters & friends do not have to hear the frightening words that they too have breast cancer.
       Our team is dedicated to walking and raising funds until an ultimate Cure is found.
