Campaign Details

I'm running my fourth LA Marathon Charity Relay, and first on behalf of the amazing Wendy Walk. Please help me raise as much money as possible in order to make headway in the fight against Sarcoma cancer.
Wendy Walk is a non-profit organization started by my friend, Ali Landes and her two siblings. The Landes Family started the organization to raise awareness and funds to fight Sarcoma, a rare form of cancer, in 2010 after their mom was first diagnosed with liposarcoma.
Wendy Walk has raised over $3.5 million to fund innovative medical research grants since inception. Proceeds from our marathon team will have a local impact, benefitting UCLA Ronald Reagan Medical Research Center and Dr. Sant Chawla's Sarcoma Oncology Clinic in Santa Monica.

Wendy Walk was founded in 2010 by Ali, Matt, and Jackie Landes to raise funds and awareness for Liposarcoma, a rare form of cancer that their mother, Wendy, was diagnosed with. Despite her tragic passing in March of 2013, Wendy's legacy has been kept alive through the organization and continues to be an inspiration to others battling the disease. With a profoundly personal understanding of how cancer impacts the entire family system, Wendy Walk is committed to helping families cope with the unique challenges sarcoma brings.

Wendy Walk works to provide courage, strength and hope to families and patients battling sarcoma through charitable social and athletic events held all over the country. The organization's most notable events are walks which take place each spring in New York City, Miami, Los Angeles, and Park City.

The funds raised allows the Wendy Walk to continually fulfill its mission to find and develop new innovative treatments for sarcoma and serve as a valuable resource for those impacted by this rare disease.
