Neuroblastoma claims more lives of children under the age of five than any other cancer. We need to improve treatments so they are more effective and less toxic and the way to do this is through research.
One way to help is through your fundraising for Run2Cure. And when you fundraise for us, we offer fabulous thank you rewards as you reach specific milestones!
Milestones
Run2Cure participants can make a difference and our first milestone reward can be reached after fundraising only $60! We then have thank you rewards available at the $150, $1000 and $1500 milestones.
For anyone who fundraises $300 or more, you will be emailed a $40 discount voucher to be used in our online Run2Cure Shop to help you get race ready!
More information on fundraising milestones can be found here.
Collection of prizes
To receive fundraising thank you prizes, you must collect them at your Run2Cure event in person. Milestones will be based on fundraising activities through 9:00am the day of your event.
We offer rewards in recognition of the work involved with fundraising however we understand that some of our generous supporters would prefer not to receive these rewards. We offer everyone the choice to donate what you've earned back to the charity to help with future fundraisers simply by not collecting your prizes.
