Empowering Black Men’s Health:
Prostate Cancer Awareness,
Support, and Action
Were you recently diagnosed with prostate cancer?
We’re here for you.
Who We Are
We are a Black men’s health and prostate cancer support group striving to enhance the health and well-being of men and their families by providing a safe, supportive forum for discussion.
Through our community-driven approach, we empower Black men to take charge of their prostate health, make informed decisions, and connect with others on similar journeys. We provide a safe space for open discussions, ensuring that men and their families have access to trusted resources, health screenings, and expert guidance.

This is Brotherhood

Meeting Hub
We host monthly wellness sessions where Black men connect, learn about prostate cancer prevention, and explore strategies for healthier living, all in a supportive, community-led space.

Prostate Cancer Support Group
Our monthly prostate cancer support sessions provide a safe space for Black men who are newly diagnosed, undergoing treatment, or in recovery to connect, share, and heal together.

Mobile PSA Testing
Our mobile PSA testing clinics bring prostate cancer screening directly into the community, making early detection more accessible, especially for Black men who face barriers to care.

Community Connections
We believe in the power of open dialogue to promote awareness, education, and support for Black men’s health. We create trusted spaces where men can talk about prostate cancer, share experiences, and support each other toward better well-being.
Supporting Future Black Medical Professionals
Fighting for Health Equity
Through partnerships with community health centers, researchers, and the government, we enhance Black men’s health by expanding prostate cancer testing access and advancing knowledge mobilization.
Our Events
At The Walnut Foundation, we are dedicated to advancing men’s health and wellness within the Black community, with a focus on prostate health, prostate cancer awareness and prevention. We bring the community together to raise awareness, promote early cancer screening, advocate for health equity, and uplift the next generation of Black medical professionals.

Walk the Path Walkathon
Walk the Path is our annual walkathon and community fundraiser held at Etobicoke Trail in Brampton. This family-friendly event raises awareness for prostate cancer in Black men while promoting physical wellness, connection, and support for our mission.

Annual Conference
The Walnut Foundation’s Annual Men’s Health Conference brings together Black men, healthcare professionals, and advocates to share expert insights on prostate cancer, wellness, and community support. Join us for a day of learning, healing, and empowerment.

Annual Black History Month Symposium
Held every February, our Black History Month Symposium explores critical health issues impacting the Black community, including diabetes, hypertension, Alzheimer’s, and prostate cancer. Through expert panels and community discussion, we promote awareness, education, and collective healing.
Why We Do It
Founded in 2007 by Dr. Isaac, The Walnut Foundation was born from a personal journey through prostate cancer. After his diagnosis and treatment, Dr. Isaac saw the urgent need to raise awareness and improve education about prostate health — particularly within the Black community, where risks are disproportionately higher.
