Rally Athletes: Champions for Childhood Cancer Research!

What are Rally Athletes?
Rally Athletes are Champions for Childhood Cancer Research who are pro-actively helping raise money by participating in an athletic event.

It’s as easy as 1, 2, 3!

1. All you have to do is register for an athletic event like a 5K, 10K, half marathon, marathon, ironman, triathlon, bike ride or walk. Of course you can climb a mountain or hike the Appalachian Trail, if you want to.
2. Next, set up your own personal fundraising page by clicking here!

3. Then send out one email asking your friends, family and co-workers to sponsor you. When you set up your web page you will be shown how to do this.

We also have Rally Athlete Apparel that you can wear the day of your race. View apparel.

Meet Josh

Josh is a 14 year old who has survived cancer and is now in the 8th grade. He was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma at the age of 8. He went through a long hard battle of dangerous chemotherapy, two surgeries, stem cell transplant, radiation, and experimental monoclonal antibody treatments in New York City. He also had doses of accutane - a drug which is supposed to help kill fast growing cells for acne but is used on some cancer patients because cancer can be a fast growing cell.

While going through his treatments, Josh would face his fear by writing poems about his treatments, his doctors and his nurses. He was an inspiration to all throughout his journey and gives others great hope. As painful as some of the therapies were, he wanted to continue to do all he could, in hopes the cancer would not return.

He has been in remission now for five years. Josh realized he wanted to help others brave the storm he had gone through. So, he is very active in his own community in spreading awareness about childhood cancer and the need for others to help join in the Rally to raise funds for this cause. He knows there will not be a cure for childhood cancer unless more money is given for research.
