About the Prevent Cancer Foundation 5K™

The Prevent Cancer Foundation 5K™ is the largest event the Foundation conducts for the general public. The 5K exemplifies the Foundation’s mission by promoting a healthy lifestyle including diet and exercise.

Anyone can participate: individuals, families, youngsters, seniors, die-hard marathoners, first time walkers. Last year’s first annual 5K attracted 400 participants and we hope to surpass that number this year but we need your help.

Through registering for the 5K, forming or joining a team, supporting the 5K through sponsorship, supporting a participant or volunteering, you can make a difference in the lives of thousands, if not millions, of people by supporting cancer prevention and early detection research, community outreach and education. There are many ways you can become involved. The important thing is to get involved!
