Kim Miller 5K raises $3,200 for local fight against breast cancer

June 5, 2016

The Kim Miller 5K in Georgetown raised $3,200 to support the Delaware Breast Cancer Coalition’s local programs and services for those facing a diagnosis or recurrence of breast cancer. The event April 9, hosted in memory of Kim Miller, was organized by Lisa Locklear and presented by 16 Mile Brewery.

Miller was diagnosed with stage four breast cancer in May 2010 at age 27. She fought the disease for 16 months and in October 2011 lost her battle. This annual race has been organized by her sister, Lisa Coverdale and 16 Mile Brewery is the generous host of the 5K and after-party.

The coalition's programs increase breast cancer awareness, promote the importance of early detection, provide access to mammograms and provide support and resources to women and men in the local community who are newly diagnosed or facing recurrence of breast cancer.
