Run, walk and celebrate in Treasure Beach while supporting breast cancer awareness and vital screening services.

The Women With a Purpose 5K Run/Walk & Breakfast Party brings together runners, walkers, families and supporters for an inspiring morning of fitness, friendship and community spirit in Treasure Beach, Jamaica.

Organised by the JK Breast Cancer Foundation, this annual charity event raises awareness of breast cancer while supporting access to important screening services for individuals in need. Set against the welcoming atmosphere of Jamaica’s South Coast, the event encourages people of different ages and fitness levels to come together for a meaningful cause.
