Description:

On Sunday, June 1, Lurie Cancer Center and Northwestern Medicine will welcome cancer survivors and supporters to our Annual Cancer Survivors’ Celebration Walk & 5K!

Held on National Cancer Survivors Day, the event is a one-of-kind opportunity for people who have faced or are facing cancer to connect as a community and celebrate milestones with the families, friends, physicians, scientists, and care providers who support them every step of the way.

The celebration in Chicago’s Grant Park is open to everyone whose life has been touched by cancer, regardless of where they were treated. Highlights include a non-competitive walk or chip-timed 5K race along the lakefront, commemorative T-shirts, music and entertainment, inspiring speakers, activities for the family, and an opportunity to share a message on the Dedication Wall.
