About this run
Dozer’s Run/Walk 5K is an annual event hosted by Summers Charity Fund to provide funding for canine cancer research. Summers Charity Fund is an organization created by Roger and Stacie Summers after the passing of our best four-legged friend, Dozer, to cancer in 2019. With your help we have managed to raise over $100,000 to aid in Canine Cancer Research since 2020. All donations are donated to The University of Pennsylvania, School of Veterinary Medicine! Penn Vet | Penn Vet Cancer Center Join us for a morning walk/run and enjoy the fun! As a reminder, while we love our four-legged babies, they are not able to attend this race due to insurance reasons. The goodie bag will make it up to them, we promise!
