Infinite Love for Kids 5K Tutu Trot
On Sunday June 12, 2022 Infinite Love will be holding its 7th annual 5K run/walk Tutu Trot!
While, for the first four years, this event originated and was solely held in Trumbull, CT as an in-person race, due to COVID we were forced to pivot towards a virtual 5K event for 2020 and 2021. With that, we are THRILLED to announce that not only will our Tutu Trot be in person once again, but this year (and going forward) we'll be holding our event simultaneously in TWO locations, CT and NJ (Monmouth County)! Best part, we have so many loyal trotters from all over the nation, that we're keeping the virtual option open with the goal of having at least one registered runner from all 50 states!
Last year with our virtual Tutu Trot we were able to raise and donate $75,000 for the Children's Brain Tumor Network (CBTN) based out of the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP). This year our goal is to raise $100,000 for the CBTN and we know that with your help we can make that dream happen!
The CBTN's mission is built around global collaboration between many of the leading childhood brain tumor research and treatment centers located throughout the United States, Europe, Asia, and Australia. More than 20 CBTN member institutions contribute disease and scientific expertise; develop precision-based clinical trials; enroll research subjects; and collect biospecimens, clinical data, and other information needed for research. Together, these data and specimens provide researchers with a comprehensive view of childhood brain tumor biology and development and allow the discovery of more effective therapies for children. In short, the CBTN is the future of pediatric cancer research and they're already making a HUGE impact!
