Thank you to everyone who joined us, donated and volunteered! You have all made the 7th Annual Nicole Podkowa 5K Walk & Run the most successful one YET!
About the Podkowa 5K Walk & Run
This unique fund removes barriers to care by providing patients with assistance to help with utility payments, food, housing, transportation, cancer related supplies and other necessities. Your support allows our patients and their families to focus on what is most important – their battle against cancer.
We are so proud to be a part of such a caring and supportive community and could not have achieved this success without your support.
