Road America’s Annual Cancer Walk/Run Exceeds Fundraising Goal

ELKHART LAKE, Wis., – November 14, 2024 – The American Cancer Society’s annual 4-mile Walk/Run at Road America achieved an incredible milestone this year, raising $181,000 and surpassing its goal by $21,000. This powerful event, now in its fourth decade, has collectively raised over $5 million to support the fight against cancer, bringing hope to thousands of families.

Road America, serving as the proud presenting sponsor, expressed heartfelt gratitude to all who participated, volunteered, and donated.
