PHARR-SAN JUAN-ALAMO ISD student council leaders organized the 11th annual Tract of Hope Cancer Awareness and Relief Walk to honor those affected by cancer and to raise funds to help 10 community members with medical bills.
Student council leaders from PHARR-SAN JUAN-ALAMO ISD organized the 11th annual Tract of Hope Cancer Awareness and Relief Walk to honor people fighting cancer, survivors and those who have died.
Organizers said the event has two primary objectives: to raise awareness about the types of cancer affecting the community and to provide relief funds to support 10 community members with medical bills. One student speaker said students have been collecting donations and sponsorships since December to assist PSJA families with medical expenses.
A student speaker expressed gratitude for community backing and said the walk is intended to remind those battling cancer ‘‘you are not alone’’ and that the school community supports them. Organizers described the Tract of Hope as a guiding initiative to encourage hope and communal solidarity for those affected by cancer.
No formal motions, votes or legal authorities were discussed during the remarks, and logistical details such as event date, total funds raised and location were not specified in the transcript.
