Children's Cancer Network's Run To Fight Children's Cancer

Every day, 43 children are diagnosed with cancer in the United States. Childhood cancer is both a life-threatening and life-changing diagnosis. Based on the type of cancer, treatment may last from months to years. Following treatment, two-thirds of these children will suffer long-term side effects as a result of their treatment. The average cost of a stay in a hospital for a child with cancer is a staggering $40,000 per stay and most families spend an additional $10,000 annually in non-medical costs including gas, parking, and additional childcare.

Fundraising

Although not required for event participation, the hope is that those that join the Run to Fight family through event participation and volunteering will be moved to join the fundraising efforts.

When you register, the opportunity to build a fundraising team will be presented. All funds will support the financial assistance and family centered programs and services of Children’s Cancer Network. Thank you for your support!
