We Love Philly
by Brooke McMillan
It’s no secret, LIVESTRONG loves Philadelphia. The LIVESTRONG Challenges in Philly have consistently had the most participants and dollars raised. In fact, in 2010, more than 5,700 participants and 800 volunteers came together in Philly to raise $3.4 million in the fight against cancer. So far this year, 3500 runners and riders have signed up for this year’s event and we are expecting hundreds more to register before August 20th. Join us and sign up today!
There is no questioning our dedication to the area. LIVESTRONG has funded many projects there like the Abramson Cancer Center, UPenn LIVESTRONG Survivorship Center of Excellence, LIVESTRONG at the YMCAs, Cancer Transitions programs, and a host of other grantees that serve survivors and their families.
We invite you to participate in the LIVESTRONG Challenge this August 20th-21st in support of the survivors in your community and the 28 million living with cancer worldwide. Thanks to the generosity of our corporate partners, 100% of your donations go to support our mission to support people affected by cancer. Sign up to run, ride or walk the LIVESTRONG Challenge in Philly this August. You won’t regret it.
