The Millions 4 Menopause: Awareness Run/Walk is making history — and you're invited.
An Historic 5k for a Hot Topic
Mpowered Menopause thanks Pandia Health for their Gold-Level sponsorship demonstrating their unwavering support for improving women’s lives.
October 3, 2026 Prospect Park, Brooklyn
In the heart of New York City's Prospect Park, this powerful event will raise visibility and critical funding for a long-overlooked health issue: menopause. With over 85% of women experiencing symptoms like hot flashes, sleep disruption, and libido loss, it’s time the world took notice.
Despite affecting half the population, menopause remains dramatically underfunded, under-discussed, and misunderstood. This walk is about more than awareness — it’s about advocacy, action, and unity.
We’re stepping out to:
Raise $1 million for menopause research
End the stigma around hormone-related health
Push for better treatments, including HRT, estradiol, and progesterone
Celebrate strength, community, and progress
Join the Movement
Mpowered Menopause has set an ambitious goal of raising $1 million in 2026 to advance menopause research, support advocacy efforts, and improve health outcomes for women nationwide.
The 2nd Annual Millions 4 Menopause 5K Run/Walk is one of the cornerstone initiatives helping us achieve that vision. This year's event has a fundraising goal of $50,000 through registrations, donations, and participant-led fundraising efforts.
Our Goals for 2026
Mpowered Menopause Annual Goal: $1,000,000
Millions 4 Menopause 5K Goal: $50,000
Participant Goal: 1,000+
