The 6th Annual Miles for Team Jack virtual miles challenge is officially in the books, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the incredible support! Throughout September, 349 participants from across the country walked, ran, and moved with a purpose, logging a combined 23,429 miles and raising an outstanding $38,883 for childhood brain cancer research through the Team Jack Foundation.
Team Jack Executive Director Kylie Dockter said, “Our Miles for Team Jack Challenge continues to show what’s possible when people come together with a common purpose. We are so grateful to everyone who walked, ran, fundraised, donated, and helped spread the word throughout September. Your support is helping advance research and bring hope to children and families facing brain cancer. We also want to give a special thank you to Fleet Feet for helping make this challenge possible and encouraging our participants throughout the month!”
