Michele, Emily, Joan, Caroline, and Catherine are running the TCS New York City Marathon to raise funds in support of pediatric cancer research and to help Tackle Kids Cancer. We are running in honor of Patrick Battle Jr. (or "Baby Patrick" as many of us knew him), who passed away in 2018 following his courageous battle with cancer. 

The Children’s Cancer Institute at Hackensack Meridian Health has stood as a beacon of hope for children and families dealing with pediatric cancer…but more can be done. All money raised will benefit the Children’s Cancer Institute at Hackensack Meridian Health and will help their littlest patients become kids again!

Pediatric cancer is the #1 cause of death by disease among children in the US and only 4% of cancer research dollars are allocated to pediatric cancer. These facts are devastating, but the doctors at the Children’s Cancer Institute are working tirelessly to find a cure. Please support us and help end childhood cancer!

Thank you for supporting our run!  Together we can make a bigger impact in this fight against pediatric cancer. Remember…together WE CAN Tackle Kids Cancer!
