~A world without Breast Cancer would be a 
miracle~
        K.I.C is supporting Breast Cancer by doing a Breast Cancer 
Walk. "Making Strides Against Breast Cancer." The walk is 5 miles long is taking 
place at Ford Island. This walk provides a powerful and inspiring opportunity as 
a community to honor Breast Cancer survivors and raise awareness. The walk 
begins at 7:00.A.M. Walkers will be treated to water and first-aid at 
checkpoints along the walk route.
    We interviewed Taryn Kanai to see what 
her opinion is about this Breast Cancer Walk. We asked her, "Why do you think 
it's important for us to participate in this walk?" She replied with "It helps 
people with Breast Cancer, and since there's no cure for Breast Cancer, it's 
great that were walking to raise awareness and money for the "Cure." Another 
question we asked her was, "How do you think the people with this disease are 
feeling, now that they know were doing a walk for them?" She says, "I think they 
are feeling ecstatic and thankful knowing that were supporting their disease and 
raising awareness and money to help cure their disease." 
    We also 
interviewed Victoria Coffin (Ms Coffin, Room H101) to see a teachers perspective 
on this walk. We asked her "Why do you think it's important hat were doing this 
walk?" She replied happily with "I think that it is important to do this walk 
because there are a lot of survivors from this disease and we need to show our 
support. We also need to educate people about Breast Cancer and how it affects 
people's lives. We also asked her "What do you hope to accomplish after this 
walk?" She replied joyfully "I hope that more students are aware about Breast 
Cancer and it's affects.
    
~Breast Cancer survivors you are strong, 
continuing to have that this unbreakable bond. I know it's tough and can be very 
rough, but keep your love alive through this big fight. Never give up and use 
all your might. We hope to earn money to help cure breast cancer. Wish 
Us Luck~
