The 2020 Run for the Stripes Virtual Event was a huge success because of you. Even in a difficult year, the NET community once again rallied to support their friends and family and have delivered in a big way. We are thrilled to announce we had 753 participants representing 33 states and Canada who raised $70,000! This takes our cumulative total donated to $422,500. We are able to once again donate 100% of the funds raised to the Neuroendocrine Tumor program at the University of Pennsylvania Abramson Cancer Center. Your direct contributions are supporting research for new treatments for NET and hopefully - one day - a cure.
Thank you to all of our teams, individual fundraisers, and participants - everyone did an amazing job once again this year.
Thank you for uploading your pictures from your virtual event and sharing your experience with us. Even though we could not physically be together, we were together in spirit, united in purpose.
Enjoy the post race re-cap video and have a safe and blessed holiday season.

Race for NET (neuroendocrine tumor) focus is to raise awareness for neuroendocrine cancers, a rare and hard to diagnose cancer, and to raise money to donate to research for this rare cancer. This year will be the eighth year for the Run For The Stripes 5K run and 1 Mile walk. We had so much fun last year and since it was such a success we had to come back and do it again. It is a great way to be involved with the NET community and the proceeds from the run go to research designated specifically for NET research.
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.
