Join the UNC Student National Dental Association in the annual Oral Cancer 5K Run/Walk on Saturday June 25th, 2022 at 7:30AM!
In honor of UNC Adam’s School of Dentistry’s very own oral cancer survivor, Dr. Scott Eidson, all proceeds will be donated to the UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center to provide accessible and affordable treatment to head and neck cancer patients throughout North Carolina.
100% of the proceeds go towards helping patients pay all the bills of miscellaneous treatment expenses - transportation to and from the hospital, additional housing expenses required for them to stay close to the hospital during their treatment, mortgage/rent and utility bills for patients who have lost income because of their cancer diagnosis, and childcare while the parent is receiving treatment.
Your support - whether by signing up and running, donating, or both - has such an important impact on all these patients' abilities to afford and get treated. Thank you for being a part of the solution today!
When:Saturday June 25th, 2022 at 7:30AM EST (rain or shine)
Where: Old Well, 180 E Cameron Ave, Chapel Hill, NC 27514

Payment & Registration: $25.00 + $3.25 processing fees* (Pre-registration by Thursday, June 23) $30.00 + $3.25 processing fees* (Day-of registration on Saturday, June 25)

Important Payment Information:
*The website's processing fee is reduced if you register more people per transaction. For example, if you register your friend and yourself in one transaction, the fee is reduced from $3.25 to $1.62.
Thank you for helping cover the fees for this transaction - your help ensures that the full $25 amount can go towards our patients!
