FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a fundraiser walk-a-thon was held in northeast Fresno on Sunday morning.

Hollywood Wigs and Ivanhoe Medical Supply hosted the event.

Volunteers and vendors also put on their fun pink wigs, all in support of breast cancer awareness.
