Celebration of Life 5K

Wake Forest, NC

Join us for the Celebration of Life 5k Walk/Run, both online with a virtual run and in person, as we unite survivors, co-survivors, and supporters in a testament to strength, hope, and community.

Cancer is a relentless adversary, affecting the lives of millions around the world. Yet, in the face of its challenges, extraordinary stories of courage, determination, and triumph continue to emerge.

Unconditionally Her and Amazing Grace Event Management are proud to host the Celebration of Life 5K in partnership with the Women Survivors Alliance (a 501c3 non-profit). Proceeds from the event will be donated to support the Jimmy V Foundation. In 2024, the inaugural Celebration of Life 5K raised $4,000 for Jimmy V to advance survivorship programs.

This incredible event unites survivors and their co-survivors—beloved friends, family members, and caregivers—in a shared journey of strength and solidarity. This is not a race to compete but a collective stride toward a brighter, cancer-free world. 

On June 22nd, in Raleigh, North Carolina, let’s come together to paint the world in the vibrant colors of hope and perseverance. Whether you’re lacing up your sneakers for the 5K Walk/Run, donating to support survivorship programs, wearing your favorite survivor tee, or spreading awareness in your own way, your presence matters. This day will stand as a testament to the unyielding human spirit and a beacon of hope for all who battle this disease.

Throughout June, Unconditionally Her will celebrate the courage of survivors with Survivor Sunday, sharing inspiring stories from around the world. Let us honor life, unity, and resilience—both online and in person. Together, we will lift each other up, support co-survivors, and stand united against cancer.

Together, we are stronger. Together, we are unstoppable.
