Friday, July 29, is the deadline for University of Wyoming employees to join TEAM UW Race for the Cure scheduled for Saturday, Aug. 13, at the State Capitol in Cheyenne.
UW employees can register here. Cost is $25. Tables will be set up in the Wyoming Union breezeway for the next few weeks to register.
“The University of Wyoming has been a leader in supporting this worthy cause, and we hope to continue this tradition,” says Wilma Varga, assistant to the provost, who is organizing UW’s participation. “You don’t have to walk or run in the race, you can show your support by donating or sponsoring an individual.”
The Race for the Cure benefits the Susan G. Komen for the Cure, an organization supporting breast cancer research. Since its inception in 1982, the organization has raised more than $1.5 billion for research, education and health services, making it the world's largest breast cancer charity.
