Description:

More than 4,000 people will join together on Sunday, June 3 for the Lurie Cancer Center's 25th annual event to honor and celebrate cancer survivors.

Held in Chicago’s Grant Park on National Cancer Survivors Day, the Cancer Survivors’ Celebration Walk & 5K brings cancer survivors, families, and friends together with the physicians, scientists, and health professionals who support them. A non-competitive walk or chip-timed 5K run along the lakefront, a picnic, t-shirts, music, activities for the family and an opportunity to share a message on the Dedication Wall are all part of this meaningful community event.

Lurie Cancer Center is grateful for the generosity of our friends who provide the much-needed support for breakthrough programs bridging basic science research and clinical care. Please consider creating a personalized, online fundraising page or joining a fundraising team when you register. Fundraising is optional and no minimum is required.

Details and online registration are available at cancer.northwestern.edu/walk or 312.695.1300. Onsite registration will open Sunday, June 3 in Grant Park at 8:00 a.m., the 5K race will start at 9:30 a.m. and the Walk will begin at 10:00 a.m., rain or shine.
