Morris Bart, LLC, is proud to be a sponsor of this year’s Sista Strut 3K Walk in New Orleans, starting in Woldenberg Park at 8 a.m. on March 3. Be there and become aware!
The goal of Sista Strut is to heighten awareness about the issues of breast cancer in women of color, as well as provide information on community resources. Studies show that African American women are more likely to get breast cancer at a younger age and have a death rate from breast cancer greater than that of Caucasian women of the same age.
Sista Strut recognizes the strength of survivors and their loved ones, heightens awareness, and promotes early detection and the search for a cure.
Did You Know?
- African American women in the U.S. have a 41% higher death rate from breast cancer than white women
- African American women are more likely than white women to be diagnosed with breast cancer before age 40 and are more likely to be diagnosed with larger tumors

Be there to help us support this worthy cause! For more information, find Sista Strut on Facebook or visit Races Online.
