Join us for the 3rd Annual Friends 5K Run/Walk benefiting Friends of the Helen F. Graham Cancer Center & Research Institute. This year's event will be at the Helen F. Graham Cancer Center campus in Newark, Delaware.
Proceeds for this year's race will be used to assist cancer patients who experience food insecurity. Our Community Health Outreach and Education and Cancer Care Management teams are working to address nutrition security by offering programming that helps patients access fresh produce and healthy food choices. Registered dietitians guide our patients on the benefits of these food choices and ways to help improve nutritional intake during cancer therapy.
