2025 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 2025 Run for the Stripes 5k and 1 mile family fun walk - we raised and are donating a record breaking $95,000 to the NET tumor program at the University of Pennsylvania, Abramson Cancer Center! This year’s donation brings the Run for the Stripes total lifetime donation to the NET tumor program at Penn to $805,000. The NET community showed up big this year with 1,043 registrants, 816 in person and 227 virtual. We had virtual participants from over 20 states 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. Together, we are really making a difference for the NET community. We truly appreciate all of you, continuing to show up year after year for this great cause. Stay tuned for the RFTS wrap up video, we will publish as soon as it is ready. We hope you all have a wonderful, restful holiday season. Mark November 7, 2026 on your calendar to be with us at the Zoo again next year! Warm Regards, Run for the Stripes Board of Directors - Jim Eisner, Lori Canzanese, Andy Steinfeld, Jean Binkovitz

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.
