2024 Run for the Stripes Results
On behalf of the Run for the Stripes board of directors, I am thrilled to share as a result of all of your efforts - fundraising, volunteering, and sponsoring the 2024 Run for the Stripes 5k and 1 mile family fun walk - we raised and are donating $85,000 to the NET tumor program at the University of Pennsylvania, Abramson Cancer Center!
The NET community showed up big this year with 1,015 registrants, 852 in person and 163 virtual. We had virtual participants from 20 states, New Zealand, and even participants on a cruise ship! It was truly a wonderful day where the NET community could come together, connect, and raise funds for a good cause.
Thank you to Matt Pawlowski from Pawlowski media who donated his time to create the wrap up video for us this year. Enjoy!

Warm Regards,

neuroendocrine tumor (NOOR-oh-EN-doh-krin TOO-mer)
A tumor that forms from cells that release hormones in response to a signal from the nervous system. Some examples of neuroendocrine tumors are carcinoid tumors, islet cell tumors, medullary thyroid carcinomas, pheochromocytomas, and neuroendocrine carcinomas of the skin (Merkel cell cancer). These tumors may secrete higher-than-normal amounts of hormones, which can cause many different symptoms.
