The University of Miami once again joins the South Florida community for the Dolphins Challenge Cancer (DCC), which provides critical philanthropic support to the Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, part of the University of Miami Health System. Since its inception, the DCC has raised more than $39 million, donating 100 percent of participant-raised funds to Sylvester and providing resources to continue to drive research breakthroughs that improve the lives of cancer patients and their families.
This family-friendly team event includes the option to run, walk, or cycle, so there’s something for all members of the ’Canes family. Register now to participate with Team Hurricanes on Saturday, April 10.
Here’s what you need to know about this year’s DCC:
- Registration, which ranges from $35 to $100, is free for all members of the University family, including faculty, staff, students, and alumni. At checkout, use promo code TEAMHURRICANESDCC.
