Welcome to the Collette Warriors!

Get ready to lace up your sneakers and join the Collette Warriors team for the Gloria Gemma Annual Flames of Hope 5k Run/Walk! Mark your calendars for Sunday, October 6th at 10am and let’s kick off Breast Cancer Awareness Month with a bang!

The Gloria Gemma Foundation offers free programs and support services to breast cancer patients, survivors, and their families. Collette has proudly supported this amazing organization for many years, and we’re thrilled to continue this tradition.

Whether you’re a seasoned runner or a first-time walker, we’ve got a spot for you! If you’ve never run a 5k before, don’t worry-you can train in just 6 to 8 weeks. And if you want to walk instead of run, you will have lots of company!

The Collette Foundation is excited to cover the entry fee for the first 50 participants. Plus, if you decide to fundraise, we’ll match up to $50 per person, for a total match of $4000!

I am looking forward to seeing you this race day as part of the “river of pink” flowing through downtown Providence. Thank you for bringing your energy, optimism, resilience, bravery, and perseverance as we come together to support cancer patients in our community. Your presence makes a meaningful difference.

Gather your pink and let’s make this year unforgettable!
