About the Strut for Childhood Cancer Race

No Child Should Fight Alone.

In 2025, more than 400 individuals flooded Long Leaf Park in Wilmington, NC, to support childhood cancer families in New Hanover, Pender, and Brunswick counties. We can't wait to make it bigger and better than ever in 2026! Stay tuned for the date for the 17th Annual Strut for Childhood Cancer Race.

After each race, we celebrate with a successful run with a FLAMINGO FOAM PARTY!

All proceeds benefit Children’s Cancer Partners of the Carolinas Cape Fear Region, Wilmington’s only nonprofit organization solely dedicated to supporting families on their childhood cancer journey. Your support ensured 100+ Cape Fear children and families will receive the support they need.
