Why Run This Race?

The Falls Cancer Club  was founded in 1948 by three women who wanted to help their neighbors. At that time they helped by taking them dinner, making bandages and various other types of personal one-on-one care.  The club has evolved since then and now have a visitor assigned to each cancer patient who is their liaison with the club. The visitor provides emotional support and is a source of information on other organizations that might be of assistance to the patient.  Additionally the Club provideds financial support for the related treatment expenses.  One of the main sources of those funds is this 5K Run/Walk.
