Whether you’re running the full marathon, half marathon, or 5K, your participation will make a significant impact on the lives of the kids and families we serve.

This opportunity was inspired by running enthusiast Felice Adler-Shohet. She established The Shohet Family Fund for Ewing Sarcoma Research in honor of her son, Noah. She’s used running as a powerful fundraising tool to inspire donors. In 2025 Shohet fund joined with four partners to fund the $1.5 million ACES, Advancing Cures for Ewing Sarcoma, grant to accelerate research and new treatments for Ewing sarcoma.
