This past Saturday, our community came together at Northwestern Medicine Field to celebrate cancer survivors, honor loved ones and support the incredible work of Northwestern Medicine Living Well Cancer Resources. From the Survivor Celebration to the 5K run and 1-mile walk, the energy and compassion were truly inspiring. Whether you walked, ran, volunteered, donated, or cheered from the sidelines, thank you for being part of this meaningful day. Together, we raised $215,045 toward our $225,000 goal. If every participant made a self-donation and/or raise an additional $10, we would hit our goal – which would help Living Well provide more wigs, support, and community, to local families who need it most. The NM5K is Living Well’s largest fundraising event of the year, and we need YOUR help to reach that goal! Fundraising continues until December 31st, and every dollar counts. Anyone who donates $10 or more will be entered to win a sweatshirt, to rock at next year’s NM5K! Make a Donation: nm.org/nmwalkand5k (fb)
