Texas Health Mansfield Inspires Hope at Breast Cancer Run

Texas Health Hospital Mansfield partnered with the Arlington-Mansfield Area YMCA to host their second annual Run for a Cure 5K in Oct. 2024. The event launched Breast Cancer Awareness Month, highlighting the importance of supporting those affected by the disease.

Proceeds from the race benefit the YMCA’s Livestrong program, a 12-week initiative that helps cancer survivors regain strength through tailored exercise regimens. Instructors who are trained in cancer survivorship and post-rehabilitation care guide participants in rebuilding their health while fostering their connections with other survivors.

“Partnerships with community organizations like the YMCA help increase awareness, encourage early screening and raise funds to provide resources to patients on their cancer journey,” said Eulanie Lashley, CEO of Texas Health Hospital Mansfield. “Texas Health Mansfield remains committed to providing this support as we extend the healing ministry of Christ well beyond the walls of our hospital.”
