Organiser's description

OUR MISSION IS TO ADVOCATE FOR SUPPORT AND RESOURCES BEYOND THE DIAGNOSIS OF CANCER, TO EDUCATE, INSPIRE HOPE, CULTIVATE AWARENESS AND EMPOWER INDIVIDUALS THROUGHOUT THEIR JOURNEY AND BEYOND!

WHY BEYOND THE RIBBON? - A cancer diagnosis can be mentally, physically and financially draining not only for the patient but for the entire family. Funds that are raised by this event and many others will help with prescriptions, medical supplies, co-pays, financial assistance, gas, transportation, meals, cancer comfort items and so much more. For that very reason "Beyond the Ribbon" was created in hopes of helping the very people that receive the words "you have cancer".

ALL PARTICIPANTS WILL RECEIVE A RACE T-SHIRT, MEDAL, & SWAG BAG!
