Running for the Fight Against Cancer is the Israel Cancer Association's fundraising campaign in conjunction with the Jerusalem Marathon.

We invite you, runners of all ages, and all fitness levels, to set yourself a personal challenge: to finish one of the Jerusalem Marathon race courses, scheduled to take place on 21 March 2014, and do something good along the way.  Using this link, you may set up and design a personal fundraising page on the campaign website.  On your fundraising page, you can post a photo, video clip and personal message calling upon family and friends or acquaintances to support you in the challenge that you have taken on and contribute to the fight against cancer.   

By setting up a personal campaign page, you can enlist the support of those around you to help you face two meaningful challenges that you've taken on:

a. Preparing for a race in the Jerusalem Marathon and b. Raising a donation – which can make a real change in the quality of life of cancer patients, lead to breakthrough scientific research or help purchase life-saving medical equipment.  By enlisting the support of people in your social circle, you can benefit from a virtual fan club for this campaign and add an element of commitment and meaning to your training regimen.  Moreover, the Running for the Fight Against Cancer team will see to a training program, informational materials, and moral support.
