The NC community is joining together this spring in support of a meaningful, local cause, as staff, students and alumni take part in the Rankin Cancer Run.

This year, the NC Knights on the Run team will take part in the annual, family-friendly event, which raises critical funds to support cancer care across the Niagara region.

Participants can choose between a 1 km or 5 km walk/run, making it an accessible and inclusive opportunity for all fitness levels.

Event details:

• Date: Saturday, May 23
• Location: Brock University, St. Catharines
• Start time: 10 a.m.
• Registration: $20 per adult; $10 per student (includes event T-shirt)

Registration is required to participate. Those unable to attend can still show their support by donating to the NC Knights on the Run team to help reach its $2,000 fundraising goal, or by spreading the word across their networks.
