Why a Walk
18th Annual Run for Gus 5K Run/1 Mile Walk presented by Deloitte is named after Gus Evangelides, who passed away from a malignant brain tumor at the young age of 21 months.
By supporting Run for Gus, you are making a difference in the lives of thousands of children afflicted with brain tumors by funding:
- Research into the causes and treatment of pediatric brain tumors.
- Service-oriented events and programs that support children and families in the hematology/oncology and brain tumor clinics, including Beads of Courage and spirit-lifting hospital parties that are solely funded by YAB.
