Celebrate Earth Day with FPS!
April 22, 2020 – Celebrating Earth Day by Making Memories!
Fifty years ago, Earth Day began on April 22, 1970, with the hopes to bring awareness to better care for our natural world. This year’s theme is Climate Action. Use the suggested activities to help care for Earth, all while spending time with your loved ones and having fun, sharing more smiles and making memorable moments together. Share how you’re caring for Earth on social media and tag @takeabreakfromcancer.
One easy thing you can do today to celebrate is taking a walk around your neighborhood, local park, or just around the block, to support For Pete’s Sake Cancer Respite Foundation on Sunday, April 26th, for what would have marked our 10th Annual For Pete’s Sake, Walk! in Philadelphia. Nothing will prevent us from caring for our community and making sure to remind others that love is greater than cancer. Encourage family and friends from afar to celebrate and walk in their neighborhood or favorite park, as well as, fundraise to support families facing cancer!
