URGENT UPDATE: The annual “John Shapiro’s Superheroes 5K” is set to take place this June in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, honoring the life of a young boy who tragically lost his battle with brain cancer in 2011. This event, organized by the Superheroes Foundation, aims to celebrate the heroism of John Shapiro and support families currently fighting cancer.
Each year, the 5K brings together community members to raise funds that directly assist those in need. The foundation provides financial support to families, allowing them to utilize the funds in ways that best suit their unique situations. This year’s race promises to continue the legacy of John’s inspiring spirit and his ability to uplift others, even during his illness.
The event has been a staple in the community for over a decade, drawing participants and supporters who recognize the importance of giving back. “It’s not just a race; it’s a way to remember John and help families who are facing the same struggles we once did,” said a family member involved in the foundation.
With the 5K happening in just a few weeks, organizers are urging community members to participate, whether by running, walking, or volunteering. “Every registration helps us provide critical support to families dealing with cancer,” they emphasized.
The 2024 Superheroes 5K will be held on June 15, 2024, and promises to be an uplifting event filled with inspiration and community spirit. Participants are encouraged to register online, with all proceeds directly benefiting families impacted by cancer.
