On September 19, Compton College will host a gathering of residents, local leaders, and health partners offering free PSA tests, educational materials, and support services
I know firsthand that early detection can save your life. That is why this walk means so much to me. We have to get our men past the fear, get them the information they need and get them screened.”— Alonzo "Lonzo" WilliamsCOMPTON, CA, UNITED STATES, August 24, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — The 7th Annual Prostate Cancer Awareness Walk & Community Giveaway is set for Saturday, September 19, 2026, from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at Compton College, with organizers urging residents, companies, community groups, and corporate allies across Southern California to join the walk, provide sponsorship, and help deliver a message that could save lives.
Presented by the Compton Entertainment Chamber of Commerce (CECC) and Lyrical Revolution, this yearly event unites community leaders, healthcare experts, survivors, families, and advocates around a single vital goal: raising prostate cancer awareness and motivating men to undergo screening.
Key community figures taking part this year include Hip Hop pioneer and prostate cancer survivor Alonzo “Lonzo” Williams along with Compton Councilman Jonathan Bowers.
Guests will receive free PSA testing, health resources, community services, opportunities to speak with survivors and medical professionals, and a community giveaway.
The core message is straightforward: Learn the facts. Get screened. Save lives.
Residents of Compton and nearby areas are encouraged to sign up now and bring their fathers, brothers, husbands, sons, uncles, friends, and neighbors. Participating in the walk provides a chance to stand alongside prostate cancer survivors, honor those who have passed, support families, and urge men to take charge of their health.
## Seeking Sponsors and Community Partners ##
Organizers are reaching out to businesses, corporations, healthcare groups, nonprofits, and community partners to back the 7th Annual Prostate Cancer Awareness Walk through sponsorship.
Sponsorship gives organizations a way to support men’s health while showing a real commitment to the communities they serve. Sponsor contributions help broaden community outreach, health education, screening awareness, event resources, and the overall campaign’s impact.
Businesses and organizations interested in sponsoring are urged to get involved now as preparations for the September event ramp up. This is more than a chance to attach a company name to an event—it is an opportunity to put resources behind a life-saving message.
## The Importance of This Walk ##
Prostate cancer awareness starts with conversations that many men and families are still avoiding. Obstacles to screening include a lack of information, limited healthcare access, fear, and simply postponing a critical health decision. The annual walk brings that conversation directly into the community.
Organizers want men to understand that seeking information and getting screened should not be delayed until a problem arises.
Men in our community deserve access. Families deserve knowledge. Our city deserves health equity.
