    Description

    Volunteer at the 13th Annual Nik's 7K Home Run & 1.5 Mile Fun Walk

    Make wishes happen by volunteering with our 7K run or 1.5 mile walk! Bring JOY to young adults, and their families, fighting cancer. Nik discovered that young adults over 17 are not eligible for a "wish." In fact, most pediatric support programs age out at 18 and adult programs start at 25, leaving a gap for young adults. Nik asked us to help young adults fighting cancer have a wish too!
