June is more than just another month on the calendar. It’s a time to honor strength, resilience, and hope. It’s National Cancer Survivor Month, a time to celebrate those who have triumphed over cancer and recognize that those that are cancer-free still live with lasting effects. This June, you can be a part of raising money to support research to find safer treatments so that survivors can grow up to live long and healthy lives through the St. Baldrick’s 50-Mile Challenge.
What is the 50-Mile Challenge, you ask? It’s a call to action, a virtual journey where participants commit to completing 50 miles throughout the month of June. Whether you walk, run, bike, swim, or choose any other activity, every step you take will make an impact in the lives of children battling cancer.
