The Henry and Stark County St. Jude Runs team is gearing up for a milestone year in 2026, celebrating its 15th anniversary with the August 1st run! Excitement is high after last year’s remarkable achievement, where the team nearly doubled both its size and total donations for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Organizers are calling on residents and supporters to keep the momentum going—registration for this year’s run is now open, and everyone is encouraged to invite friends and family to join. Each step taken helps provide vital support for children battling cancer. Full details and registration information can be found at stjuderuns.org, or find them on Facebook. The fundraising goal this year is $67,000. Visit here to donate to the team or choose a team member and help them reach their goal!
