Brother Brian O'Neill '98 is recruiting runners, walkers & volunteers for the 3rd Annual BOO! Run for Life, a Halloween-themed 10k run/ 2 mile walk to support renal cell (kidney) cancer research. The race takes place October 12 at West Potomac Park in Washington, DC, beginning at 8am.
Brian's father Dean passed away in 2003 after a 7-year battle against renal cell cancer. His friends and family established the Dean R. O'Neill Renal Cell Cancer Research Fund at the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health. All proceeds from the race support this Research Fund. Last year's event was a great success with over 600 participants and raised tens of thousands of dollars for the Research Fund.
More event details are available on Facebook.
