 Why Team for Life? Why Fundraise?
As a Team for Life member you will have the unique opportunity to participate in the SOLD OUT Walt Disney World® Dopey Challenge, Goofy’s Race and a Half Challenge, the Marathon, Half Marathon AND 10K while raising funds for Lazarex Cancer Foundation, helping end stage cancer patients to get a second chance at life through FDA-approved clinical trials. Lazarex reimburses patients directly for expenses incurred with participating in a clinical trial and will pay for a companion to go along for moral support.
With this in mind, sometimes meeting your fundraising goal can be even more rewarding than crossing the finish line!
Where does your money go?
Our program services budget is 83% (or $0.83 of every dollar) and our annual operating expenses are 17%. Because our founders cover the cost of our annual operating expenses, 100% of each dollar you raise or donate goes directly to our patient program services.
