Luminary Lane
The Celebration of Life 5K is meant to both celebrate cancer survivorship and honor those who are no longer with us. This year in SURVIVORville, we are adding Luminary Lane , which will surround our race path so that we can commemorate our family and friends in a most special way. Please fill out the below and donate $20 to purchase your luminary to light up our race even brighter!
Other Ways to Contribute
In 2024…
The Celebration of Life 5K Walk/Run proudly raised over $4,000 for the Jimmy V Foundation, supporting its vital survivorship programs that provide hope and resources to those impacted by cancer. This incredible achievement was made possible by the dedication of participants, donors, and volunteers who came together to make a difference. We invite you to join us for the 2025 race on June 22 in Raleigh, where we will continue the fight against cancer and celebrate life, strength, and resilience. Register today and be part of this meaningful cause!
WHY We Walk/Run
On June 22nd, 2025, join us for the Celebration of Life 5k Walk/Run, both online with a virtual run and in person, as we unite survivors, co-survivors, and supporters in a testament to strength, hope, and community.
Cancer is a relentless adversary, affecting the lives of millions around the world. Yet, in the face of its challenges, extraordinary stories of courage, determination, and triumph continue to emerge.
Unconditionally Her and Amazing Grace Event Management are proud to host the Celebration of Life 5K in partnership with the Women Survivors Alliance (a 501c3 non-profit). Proceeds from the event will be donated to support the Jimmy V Foundation. In 2024, the inaugural Celebration of Life 5K raised $4,000 for Jimmy V to advance survivorship programs.
This incredible event unites survivors and their co-survivors—beloved friends, family members, and caregivers—in a shared journey of strength and solidarity. This is not a race to compete but a collective stride toward a brighter, cancer-free world.
On June 22nd, in Raleigh, North Carolina, let’s come together to paint the world in the vibrant colors of hope and perseverance. Whether you’re lacing up your sneakers for the 5K Walk/Run, donating to support survivorship programs, wearing your favorite survivor tee, or spreading awareness in your own way, your presence matters. This day will stand as a testament to the unyielding human spirit and a beacon of hope for all who battle this disease.
Throughout June, Unconditionally Her will celebrate the courage of survivors with Survivor Sunday, sharing inspiring stories from around the world. Let us honor life, unity, and resilience—both online and in person. Together, we will lift each other up, support co-survivors, and stand united against cancer.
Together, we are stronger. Together, we are unstoppable.
