Brief Description

Lace up your sneakers and join us for the DASH FOR DAD, part of a national race series that is quickly becoming the preeminent national event aimed at ending prostate cancer by bringing together athletes, cancer survivors, physicians, caretakers, family members and friends for one common mission: to end prostate cancer.

ZERO — The Project to End Prostate Cancer, Cancer Care of Western New York, Main Urology Associates, and Western New York Urology Associates have teamed up to bring this national initiative to Western New York for the second year in a row! The DASH FOR DAD Race is coming to Buffalo on Sunday, September 19. Our local sponsor is Dash's Market. Click here to download the DASH FOR DAD – Buffalo 2010 brochure (PDF) to complete the registration form.

Nationwide, a man dies from prostate cancer every 18 minutes. But there is hope—education about prostate cancer risk and access to screenings can save countless lives. All proceeds go toward prostate cancer research in Western New York.

Join us on your own or recruit a team. Together we can make the 2010 DASH FOR DAD Race a great success! All proceeds benefit the non-profit organization, ZERO — The Project to End Prostate Cancer.
