CONQUERING CANCER
ONE MILE AT A TIME

 

Concern is an official charity partner with the Los Angeles Marathon and LA 5K. Funds raised by TEAM CONCERN and their charity partners support cancer research and special grant gifts outside of research.

Join Team Concern in the Fight Against Cancer!

Concern Foundation, the official charity partner of the LA Marathon, is leading a mission to fund lifesaving cancer research and support programs for patients and their families. This year, we’re teaming up with a group of organizations under the banner of Team Concern to participate in the 2025 LA 5K and Los Angeles Marathon to continue paving the way toward a world without cancer.

For the past 16 years, Team Concern has raised over $1.7 million, fueling groundbreaking cancer research and vital patient services both locally and globally. Join us in our 17th year and be part of the fight against cancer!
