REGISTRATION IS OPEN FOR 12th ANNUAL RFTS 11/11/2023
That's a wrap for 2022 - both the year and our annual Run for the Stripes event. We had a total of 848 participants, 593 registered for the in person event at the Philadelphia Zoo and 255 people for the virtual event representing 30 states and Canada. Thank you for your support, participation and dedication to the Run for the Stripes.
Donations continued to roll in even after the event was over. It is because of YOU we collectively were able to raise and donate $63,000 to the NET program at Penn from our 2022 event. The donation from the event this year brings us to an 11 year total of $550,000 which has been used to support NET research and patient support through Penn, over a half a million dollars - wow!
We hope you all have a wonderful year. Mark you calendar for the 2023 RFTS event - November 11th!
Blessings,
Lori Canzanese for the RFTS Board
THANK YOU TO ALL OF OUR VOLUNTEERS AND PARTICIPANTS WHO MADE THIS YEAR'S EVENT A SUCCESS.

neuroendocrine tumor (NOOR-oh-EN-doh-krin TOO-mer)
A tumor that forms from cells that release hormones in response to a signal from the nervous system. Some examples of neuroendocrine tumors are carcinoid tumors, islet cell tumors, medullary thyroid carcinomas, pheochromocytomas, and neuroendocrine carcinomas of the skin (Merkel cell cancer). These tumors may secrete higher-than-normal amounts of hormones, which can cause many different symptoms.
