Realtors® spend their days taking care of others. This is one conversation worth taking time for yourself and sharing with someone you care about.

In this special episode of Canopy Uncovered, Canopy President Joan Goode, Realtor sits down with Dr. Antoinette Tan, a nationally recognized breast cancer specialist and Chief of Breast Medical Oncology at Atrium Health Levine Cancer Institute, to discuss what everyone should know about screening, prevention, common misconceptions and the latest breakthroughs in breast cancer treatment and research.

Thank you to every runner, walker, donor, sponsor, in-kind contributor and volunteer who helped make Canopy Housing Foundation's 10th anniversary Strides for Shelter 5K possible!

Special thanks to co-chairs Dottie Ciarrocchi and Avery Rempson, Grand Marshal Steve Maney of The Maney & LauRen Morning Show on K 104.7, DJ Chad, Start2Finish Charlotte, and our Canopy Realtor® community for bringing this day together.

We were also glad to welcome back past beneficiaries Charlotte Family Housing, Charlotte Rescue Mission, Project Outpour, The Relatives and Roof Above. Their work reminds us why we keep taking these strides together.

Before this year’s event, Strides for Shelter had returned more than $242,000 to our community. This year, we’re adding to that impact by supporting renovations to Crisis Assistance Ministry’s Free Store.

There’s still time to help! Donations remain open through Nov. 1: www.StridesforShelter5k.com

Thank you for helping us work toward a community where all housing needs are met.

And another shoutout to our amazing sponsors for making it all possible:
