Organiser's description

MollySTRONG Foundation is focused on bettering the treatment options and eventually finding a cure for Hypodiploid ALL in honor of their daughter Molly who fought this rare subtype of leukemia that is typically associated with unfavorable outcomes. Our ongoing efforts are directed to funding research at the Mullighan Lab at St. Judes where they specifically study this pediatric cancer. We also fund scholarships at Emmaus High School to recognize other teens facing and overcoming difficult challenges during these formative years. We are thankful to ChickFilA Trexlertown for partnering with us to be able to provide this event to the community! Hope you can join us to run or walk to make strides in research to benefit other children facing a cancer diagnosis!
