Neuroblastoma Run2Cure

Neuroblastoma Australia is a children’s cancer charity. They host the ‘Run2Cure’ event, which brings over 5000 people together in support of research into childhood cancer, neuroblastoma

Statistics

• Neuroblastoma claims more lives in children under five than any other cancer.
• The average age of diagnosis is just two years old.
• The average five-year survival rate for aggressive neuroblastoma is only 50%.

On Sunday, Emanuel had a team of over 25 students, staff and parents take part in the event running 5km, 10km or 21km. The event raised a total of $300,000 for Neuroblastoma, in which the Emanuel team collectively raised over $5,000.

Well done to everyone who participated and contributed to this event.

We are looking forward to planning out next charity run for the City2Surf, which will be announced in Term 2.
