The Ron Foley Foundation is proud to celebrate its 11th year as an official charity partner of the Eversource Hartford Marathon.
The Ron Foley Foundation was founded in memory of Ron Foley, who lost his battle with pancreatic cancer in October 2005. Dedicated to promoting early detection and ultimately finding a cure through research, the Foundation is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization that raises awareness and funds through community events, educational initiatives, patient assistance programs, and research support.
Our mission is to provide essential financial assistance and compassionate support to individuals and families affected by pancreatic cancer, helping to ease the burdens that accompany a cancer diagnosis. Through our Ron's Rescue Fund, we help patients facing financial hardship pay for necessities such as housing, utilities, transportation, medical expenses, and other critical needs.
Every mile completed, every volunteer hour given, and every dollar raised helps ensure that no one faces pancreatic cancer alone.
