About Wendy Walk

Wendy Walk is one of a very small number of organizations dedicated to the advancement of sarcoma research. We fund the endeavors of top sarcoma specialists around the world who are focused on accelerating the development of innovative treatments for this rare cancer. We are also committed to helping patients and their loved ones cope with the unique challenges of a sarcoma diagnosis so nobody has to experience this alone.

Since our inception in 2010, we have raised upwards of four million dollars thanks to more than ten thousand participants at 40+ walks nationwide. We are grateful to have been able to support international collaborative studies through the Liddy Shriver Sarcoma Institute, as well as gene therapy research at Stanford, Fred Hutchinson, and St. Jude in partnership with the Alliance for Cancer Gene Therapy. In addition, we have allocated grants to top medical professionals at Cedars-Sinai, Johns Hopkins, Sloan Kettering, Georgetown, Duke, Montefiore, Netherlands Cancer Institute, the Chaim Sheba Medical Center, Inserm, Sarcoma Alliance, and more.
