#KeepPounding5K

What would you do if you heard the words from your child's oncologist "there's nothing else we can do"? 

Prayers for Elijah Foundation is working so that no other parents have to hear those words.  Elijah Aschbrenner lost his battle to Epithelioid Sarcoma on November 10, 2015 after fighting with extreme courage and grit for 18 months.  The 10-year-old hero left his mark on this world, and we will continue to fight for all children that are fighting this horrid disease. 

Elijah will forever be in our hearts and will be with us June 2 as we KEEP POUNDING in Charlotte. 

We will NEVER GIVE UP, Elijah!

On Saturday, June 2, our team will participate in the Keep Pounding 5K in Charlotte, NC. One hundred percent of net proceeds raised through the Keep Pounding 5K benefit pediatric and adult cancer research, treatment, and patient services for patients at Levine Cancer Institute and Levine Children's Hospital.


Please consider making a charitable contribution to this worthy cause! Your donation will be credited to our team's fundraising goal.
