This year, Churchill Downs is proud to elevate its longstanding commitment to breast cancer awareness by partnering for the first time with the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF) as its National Philanthropy Partner. This meaningful collaboration will come to life across Oaks Day through prominent on-site recognition, including BCRF’s participation in the iconic Survivors Parade, honoring the strength and resilience of those impacted by breast and ovarian cancer.
In addition, merchandising tents throughout the venue will offer guests the opportunity to support BCRF’s mission through register round-up donations, seamlessly integrating philanthropy into the event experience. Together, these efforts will not only celebrate thrivers, but also mobilize critical funding to help advance lifesaving breast cancer research.
