For the past six years, inmates and staff at San Quentin State Prison have raised $40,000 for the Avon Breast Cancer Foundation by holding walkathons inside the prison gates. SQPR reporter Earlonne Woods tells us why they walk.

 

"To all the breast cancer survivors and people who are fighting it right now, you have men in prison that are with you."
