Good morning everyone!
We are incredibly grateful for the amazing support and participation at our event. With over 100 walkers and runners, we raised nearly $4,000 through registrations, patient sponsorships, and donations—an incredible achievement!
We also sold 130 t-shirts and still have a limited number available if anyone is interested.
A heartfelt thank you to our dedicated volunteers from the Student Athlete Committee—including Volleyball, Dive & Swim, Track, and Football—along with their coaches, our NP and Research teams, the UNM Foundation, and so many others who stepped up to help make this event such a success.
A special thank you to our donors and businesses who helped make this possible as well: UNM North Golf Course, Blood Cancer Foundation, Dion’s, Insomnia Cookies, ABQ Tents, Children’s Cancer Fund, our DJ Rob Royster and Team, Be Well NM, and ALbuquerque Fire and Rescue!!! Anyone else I may have forgotten.
It was especially wonderful to see such a strong turnout from our inpatient nurses on PSUP and PIU. Bringing together people from so many different areas to support our families truly makes this event meaningful.
We also want to recognize the outstanding support from Child Life—your presence made a big impact.
To our patients and families who attended, we are so profoundly grateful to be a part of your journey and honored to walk alongside you every step of the way.
