Held on March 9, 2019 at 8:00 AM located at Symphony Park in SouthPark, the Run Jen Run 5K and Festival is a signature event for the Go Jen Go Foundation. Race day bring together approximately 1,250 participants, volunteers, survivors and sponsors to our 5K and fun run that is followed by a festival during and after the race for our participants to enjoy the kids zone, sponsor tents and various local vendors.

We would love for you to join us at our 5K that honors local women fighting breast cancer and brings the community together to carry on the legacy of the foundations founder Jen Pagani and give hope to those survivors served by the foundation. Dollars raised will help provide financial assistance to families during breast cancer diagnosis, treatment and recovery. Go Jen Go wants to help bridge the gap between financial security and crisis.

The Go Jen Go foundation provides critical financial assistance to families during breast cancer diagnosis, treatment and recovery. Money is granted to survivors to subsidize rent, pay utility bills, conduct home/car repairs, and for other general uses. We assist vulnerable populations that suffer greatly from a breast cancer diagnosis and fall behind on their monthly bills. Founded by Joe and Jen Pagani, a Charlotte mom who lost her battle with breast cancer in 2014, who in the midst of her own battle saw others in need. In 2017, Go Jen Go provided $103,000 in grants to 138 families fighting breast cancer in the greater Charlotte area and we continue to grow in our fundraising efforts. Go Jen Go wants to help bridge the gap between financial security and crisis. Providing financial assistance helps survivors stay afloat and focus on treatment and recovery and they have a greater chance maintaining economic security once treatment is complete.
