Our Give Cancer the Boot Survivorship 5K and 1-Mile Walk to celebrate cancer survivors and support Patient and Family Services at Mays Cancer Center, home to UT Health San Antonio MD Anderson Cancer Center.

The Patient and Family Assistance Fund at the Mays Cancer Center provides life-saving treatments and essential social service support, such as nutrition and clinical dietitian services, emergency lodging for those who qualify and social work assistance to help patients overcome barriers to care. This program relies exclusively on fundraising and the generosity of donors and philanthropic partners to provide these resources to our patients and their families.

Mays Cancer Center defines a "cancer survivor" as anyone diagnosed with cancer from the time of diagnosis and beyond, whether still in treatment or cancer-free.

This event is open to everyone: adults, kids, runners, walkers, health care providers, patients, survivors, caregivers and supporters.

Finisher medals are guaranteed for the first 900 participants.
