Charity Beneficiary:
Live Run Give LLC is a race production company founded in 2019. We founded our company on the principal of bringing families and friends together for fitness and food while giving back to our community. We are committed to supporting breast cancer research and organizations that help give support to breast cancer patients. Each year, we select 2-3 not for profits to be charity beneficiaries of our races.
Our beneficiary for this event is : Metavivor. A portion of our proceeds and all donations will go directly to Metavivor. We picked this charity because Metavivor is at the forefront of investing in research for metastatic breast cancer, as in breast cancer that has spread to bones, brain, or other vital organs. While those men and women that die from breast cancer almost always have metastatic disease, currently only 2-5% of funds raised for breast cancer research are allocated for Stage 4.
In honor of my best friend Lynette the matriarchs of my family Mama Ceci, Mama Olga, Mama Chicho, and my aunt Delia and the dozens of other women who inspire to give to breast cancer charities.
