Soccer Shots 5k

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page! Get excited about the first annual Soccer Shots 5K this November at WakeMed Soccer Park: home of the North Carolina Courage Soccer Team.

We are ecstatic to join with all our friends to have fun, get some exercise and fundraise for The V Foundation. The V Foundation for Cancer Research was founded by ESPN and legendary basketball coach Jim Valvano to achieve Victory Over Cancer. We are proud to partner with such an amazing local organization that puts 100% direct donations into Cancer Research rather than operational expenses. By making a donation you will be supporting carefully vetted, cutting-edge research at prominent cancer centers nationwide. Will you join me in the fight against cancer by donating today?
