Through the American Lung Association\u2019s dedication to lung cancer research, lung cancer mortality rates have decreased by 11.5% since 2013. There\u2019s still work to be done to raise awareness and the research funding needed to defeat lung cancer once and for all.<\/p>\n<p>Funds raised through the 2021 South Carolina LUNG FORCE Run\/Walk provides critical funds for our lung health programs, life-saving research and advocacy including our local Families Kickin\u2019 Asthma program for children with asthma and their families, early detection initiatives, efforts for clean air in South Carolina communities, and lung disease research including our COVID-19 Action Initiative.<\/p>\n<p>Register today and save your spot.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-button-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/action.lung.org\/site\/TR?pg=informational&#038;sid=11989&#038;fr_id=22048\" class=\"su-button su-button-style-flat\" style=\"color:#FFFFFF;background-color:#206173;border-color:#1a4e5c;border-radius:45px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"color:#FFFFFF;padding:7px 22px;font-size:17px;line-height:26px;border-color:#63919d;border-radius:45px;text-shadow:0px 0px 0px #000000\"><i class=\"sui sui-heart\" style=\"font-size:17px;color:#FFFFFF\"><\/i> REGISTER NOW!<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Feel free to <a href=\"mailto:CharlestonEvents@Lung.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">contact us<\/a> if you have any questions about this year&#8217;s event.<\/p>\n<p>The Dunes House, Folly Beach County Park<br \/>1100 W Ashley Ave<br \/>Folly Beach, SC 29439<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17677 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/growpurpose.com\/charlestongood\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/LungForceRunWalk-box.jpg\" alt=\"LungForceRunWalk-box\" width=\"450\" height=\"386\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/growpurpose.com\/charlestongood\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/LungForceRunWalk-box.jpg 450w, https:\/\/growpurpose.com\/charlestongood\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/LungForceRunWalk-box-300x257.jpg 300w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 450px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 450\/386;\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From our friends at the American Lung Association &#8211; Coastal SC &#8230; Let\u2019s Get Moving Join us on October 30th at Folly<\/p>\n<p class=\"link-more\"><a class=\"myButt \" href=\"https:\/\/growpurpose.com\/charlestongood\/event-2021-lung-force-run-walk\/\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1599,"featured_media":17678,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19,20,4,26,35,5],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/growpurpose.com\/charlestongood\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17638"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/growpurpose.com\/charlestongood\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/growpurpose.com\/charlestongood\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/growpurpose.com\/charlestongood\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1599"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/growpurpose.com\/charlestongood\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17638"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/growpurpose.com\/charlestongood\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17638\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17679,"href":"https:\/\/growpurpose.com\/charlestongood\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17638\/revisions\/17679"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/growpurpose.com\/charlestongood\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17678"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/growpurpose.com\/charlestongood\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17638"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/growpurpose.com\/charlestongood\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17638"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/growpurpose.com\/charlestongood\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17638"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
