26.2 Step Mini MarathonYour gift helps people take the next step
Help us bring hereditary cancer awareness, testing, and support to more communities.
Somewhere, a family is about to get the call.
The one that starts with two words: “It’s cancer.” For too many families, it comes too late — after the chance to know, to test, to act has already slipped by. Your gift is how we reach the next family in time.
It turns fear into a plan. It puts answers in someone’s hands before a diagnosis instead of after. And it means one more person gets to take 26.2 steps beside the people they love.
You can’t change a family’s history. But you can change what happens next.
Give to our 10th year
Secure giving powered by Zeffy. You’ll get an emailed receipt right after your gift.
Because our 501(c)(3) status is still in formation, gifts are not tax-deductible at this time. We’ll update this page as soon as that changes. For a plain-language breakdown of where every dollar goes, see our Full Transparency page.
Every gift has a clear path
At least 70% goes to care
At least 70% of every dollar we raise goes directly to our partner charities — the Kamie K. Preston Hereditary Cancer Foundation and the Nebraska Medicine Oncology Patient & Family Experience Fund — who put it to work for patients and families. See exactly where every dollar goes.
A small share keeps it running
A small percentage is kept to cover the real cost of putting on the event. No one on the Mini Marathon team draws a salary, and we’ll publish our allocation as we complete our 501(c)(3).
Help us raise $10,000 for our 10th year.
Our goal is $10,000: $5,000 from supporters and sponsors, matched dollar-for-dollar by a 100% board match. At least 70% goes straight to the Hereditary Cancer Foundation and Nebraska Medicine Oncology; the rest covers the cost of the event, and no one here draws a salary.
