LIVESTRONG AT SCHOOL

RESOURCES FOR STUDENTS

When a parent, family member, or friend is diagnosed with cancer, kids need support. In fact, 1 in 4 cancer survivors has a school-age child at home.

 

The Livestrong at School program offers free curriculum for K–12 students that talk about cancer in an age-appropriate, hopeful, and empowering way. Help students Livestrong this back-to-school season: Download Lesson Plans

LEADVILLE RACES:

100 MILES FOR CANCER

 

This month, Team Livestrong athletes took on the Leadville Trail 100 Race Series! 4 runners and 8 cyclists (including 2 cancer survivors) accepted the challenge of racing 100 miles across the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. With positive attitudes in high altitudes, these dedicated athletes raised more than $73,000 to benefit our cancer support programs! Interested in racing with us next year?
