On Monday, September 28, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. and October 2, 2026, at 3:00 p.m., our team at Halpern Law will gather with friends, families, clients, and members of the community for something much bigger than a walk. We will come together with one shared purpose: to support those affected by lung cancer and raise funds for the American Cancer Society.
To some, it may look like a group of people walking along a trail. But to those whose lives have been touched by lung cancer, every step represents something far more meaningful.
It represents hope.
Every Step Tells a Story
Nearly everyone participating in a lung cancer walk has a reason for being there. Some walk in honor of a loved one who is currently fighting the disease. Others walk in memory of someone they’ve lost. Many simply want to show their support for families facing one of life’s most difficult challenges.
Experienced. Dedicated. Proven. We fight for Mesothelioma Victims.

Why These Walks Matters to Us
At the Halpern Law Firm, we work every day with individuals and families whose lives have been changed by asbestos exposure, mesothelioma, and asbestos-related lung cancer. Behind every case is a person, not just a diagnosis.
We’ve spoken with workers who spent decades in Pennsylvania’s factories, power plants, railroads, and shipyards. We’ve listened to families navigating difficult medical decisions and uncertain futures. We’ve seen the strength, resilience, and courage that lung cancer patients demonstrate every single day.
That’s why this walk is so important to us.
It’s an opportunity to step away from the office, stand alongside our community, and support a cause that aligns with the work we do every day.
More Than Raising Money
While fundraising is an important part of the event, the impact goes far beyond donations.
Community events like this help raise awareness about lung cancer, encourage conversations about prevention and early detection, and remind patients and caregivers that they have an entire community standing behind them.
For many families, simply seeing hundreds of people come together in support can provide comfort during an incredibly difficult time.
Hope doesn’t always come from a breakthrough treatment. Sometimes it comes from knowing people care.
Supporting the American Cancer Society
Funds raised during our walk will benefit the American Cancer Society, helping support research, patient services, education, and programs that assist individuals and families affected by cancer.
Every donation, every participant, and every step helps move us closer to a future where fewer families hear the words, “You have lung cancer.”
Join Us This September and October
We invite everyone to join us on Monday, September 28, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. and October 2, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. for our Lung Cancer Walk.
Whether you walk in honor of someone you love, in memory of someone you’ve lost, or simply because you want to support a meaningful cause, your presence makes a difference.
You don’t have to know someone personally to help create hope for another family.
Walking Together for a Better Future
Lung cancer affects thousands of families every year, but community has the power to remind people they are never fighting alone.
At the Halpern Law Firm, we believe that advocacy doesn’t stop in the courtroom. It extends into the communities we serve, the causes we support, and the people we stand beside.
On September 28 and October 2, we’ll be taking steps for awareness, for research, for families, and for hope.
We hope you’ll take those steps with us.
Frequently Asked Questions
When and where is the Lung Cancer Walk?
The walk takes place on Monday, September 28, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. and Friday, October 2, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. at [LOCATION NAME, ADDRESS]. Please arrive a few minutes early to check in.
How do I register or donate?
[REGISTRATION / DONATION INSTRUCTIONS AND LINK]. If you cannot attend in person, donations to support the American Cancer Society are still welcome.
Do I have to know someone with lung cancer to participate?
No. Many people walk in honor of a loved one or in memory of someone they have lost, but anyone who wants to support patients and families affected by lung cancer is welcome to join us.
Where do the funds raised go?
All funds raised benefit the American Cancer Society, which supports cancer research, patient services, education, and programs that help individuals and families affected by cancer.
Why does a mesothelioma law firm support lung cancer awareness?
Asbestos exposure is a recognized cause of lung cancer as well as mesothelioma, and many of the Pennsylvania workers and families we represent have been affected by asbestos-related lung cancer. Supporting lung cancer research and awareness is a natural extension of the work we do every day.
Can asbestos exposure cause lung cancer even if I smoked?
Yes. Asbestos exposure is an independent cause of lung cancer, and smoking combined with asbestos exposure raises risk substantially. A history of smoking does not rule out asbestos as a contributing cause. If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with lung cancer and worked around asbestos, it is worth having that history reviewed.
