Organiser's Description
The world heartbreakingly lost this energetic, passionate boy in November of 2019. To honor his memory, please come join us for the second Love for Luca 5K Run/Walk and Kids Fun Run, which will be held on September 21, 2025 at Middletown North High School to celebrate the life of this remarkable boy with an athletic endeavor that he would have loved and excelled at. All of the proceeds from this race will be given to a local non-profit organization, Infinite Love for Kids Fighting Cancer [https://runsignup.com/%28https:/www.infiniteloveforkidsfightingcancer.org] , whose purpose is to assist with fulfilling pediatric cancer treatment research grants while also providing financial emotional and financial aid to children and families who are undergoing cancer treatment. Infinite Love was a tremendous support to the Iacono family, and we are honored to be able to fundraise for their incredible organization. With less than 4% of the federal budget for cancer research being dedicated to childhood cancer, it is important that we chose an organization that is providing the medical community with the funds to help these children live to see their dreams fulfilled.
From Lucas obituary: He was wise beyond his years and taught those around him not to waste a single moment, to always smile, be happy, and that life was a gift not to be wasted. Come join us on 9/21/2025 to celebrate his remarkable spirit and raise much-needed funds for Infinite Love!
