2025 Bank of America Chicago Marathon

Teri's Trailblazers

Running in Honor of Teri Abruzzo: Supporting Cancer Research

We are running a marathon to honor the memory of Teri Abruzzo, one of the strongest, most loving, and passionate individuals we were fortunate to know. Although Teri lost her battle with pancreatic cancer, her spirit and love continue to inspire us every day.

In her memory, we are raising funds for the American Cancer Society to support critical cancer research. Our mission is to advance early detection, treatment, and ultimately find a cure, so fewer families have to endure the pain of losing a loved one to cancer.

Every contribution, no matter how small, brings us closer to this goal. Please consider donating and joining us in making a meaningful difference in the fight against cancer.

Thank you for your support in honoring Teri’s legacy!

How Fundraising Impacts Your Community

Cancer hits far too close to home, so the funds you raise will help do the same. Through services and resources like free rides to chemo, free places to stay near hospitals, and a live 24/7 helpline, cancer patients and their families will feel the love. Here’s how recent money raised has been put to incredible uses.

As of January 2022, we have invested $400 M for potentially lifesaving cancer research grants.

We have received over 250,000 calls and chats from patients and caregivers seeking support in 2021

Cancer patients benefited from ACS transportation support through our Road TO Recovery program and transportation grants in 2021, with nearly 229,000 rides provided.

Cancer has touched all of us in some way. And we want to stop this disease in its tracks. We'll spend the next few weeks fundraising for the American Cancer Society. Then, on the day of the event, we'll honor the lives lost to cancer, celebrate survivors, and support the caregivers who so selflessly help others.  

Together, we'll be a part of making a difference in this important cause.
