What a day at the Steps for a Cure 5K in honor of James DiGiovanna! It was so powerful to see the community come together to walk and run, raising over $31,000 and counting for pancreatic cancer research and patient aid. A huge thank you to the DiGiovanna family and everyone who came out to support our mission for a world without pancreatic cancer!πŸ’œ

Erin Ruyle had always found clarity in motion. Running had been her constant through childhood, through the demands of trauma nursing, and through life's daily pressures. But in April 2026, she took to the streets of London, where every mile carried a different kind of weight. This time, she wasn't just running 26.2 miles. She was running for Frank.πŸ’œ

Diagnosed with stage 3 pancreatic cancer in 2019, Mike Skaggs defied the odds. After chemo and a Whipple surgery, his inner survivor took over, and he hasn't stopped running since. Mike turned his diagnosis into a mission, taking on multiple marathons to raise funds, spread awareness, and bring hope to other families fighting this disease.πŸ’œ

We are incredibly proud to induct Mike into the Project Purple Hall of Fame Class of 2026! Thank you, Mike, for showing us what is truly possible. You are Project Purple!πŸ’œ

We are excited to announce that we have invested $375,000 to accelerate pancreatic cancer research at Georgetown University. The study is led by Dr. Marwa Afifi, Ph.D, an emerging leader in spatial biology and tumor immunology, bringing a unique perspective to the challenge of treating desmoplastic, or highly fibrotic, solid tumors.
