We are very excited to bring back the Elephant Run for its second year! In our first year we had 255 participants and raised over $16,000 for Dana Farber Cancer Institute and the Jimmy Fund. Please join us again this year to help this amazing cause!

Our Story

My name is Fiona Curran and I am organizing the Elephant Run 5K for its second year in memory of my grandparents, Barbara and Neil Curran. I sadly lost both of them to cancer and this race is to raise money for the Dana Farber Cancer Institute. Dana-Farber provided excellent care to both my grandparents during their battles with cancer. With this fundraiser, I hope to advance cancer research and make a difference. ​If you are unable to participate in the event donations are very appreciated.

Why Jimmy Fund?​

Our Jimmy FundRaiser directly benefits the Jimmy Fund, which has raised millions of dollars through thousands of grassroots efforts to help save lives and give hope to patients at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. When you participate or make a gift, you’re directly supporting Dana-Farber Cancer Institute’s mission to defy cancer through a unique focus on cutting-edge research and compassionate patient cancer care. You are creating opportunities for Dana-Farber leaders to enhance programs and initiatives that serve pediatric and adult cancer patients and their families around the world.

Certified 5K on beautiful somewhat hilly local roads through Park Ridge, NJ. Open to all ages! There will be food, music, and more at the finish line!
