It’s that time of the year again and excitement is in the air! Please join us for the Akanimo Cancer Foundation Annual 5K RUN/WALK event created to commemorate Akanimo’s birthday while raising funds to support childhood cancer research.
Akanimo Ekanem, born on June 13, 2007 & was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive cancer called Desmoplastic Small Round Cell tumor (DSRCT) at 10 years old and battled bravely for 2 years and 2 months until Christmas Day, 2019. This is why we are passionate about childhood cancer research. This year, on what would have been Nimo’s 18th birthday, we call on you to be part of something extraordinary as we gather all over the world in our various communities to participate in this family and community event. We invite you to create a team in your location. You can also give to an individual team or the general team. It’s an event like no other, and we love that you are a part of something this phenomenal!
Every registration to this event will bring us closer to achieving our mission – raising money to support childhood cancer research. Together, we can work towards a world where no child dies of cancer.

The American Red Cross is excited to partner with WLOS News 13 and iHeart Radio for the 38th Annual Operation Blood Drive on Thursday, June 26th in Asheville, Hendersonville, Waynesville, Columbus, and Greenville, S.C.
“Generous blood donors are critical to ensuring lifesaving care is available the moment patients need it,” said Jerri Goldberg, Executive Director, Western North Carolina Chapter. “It’s important to have blood products on the shelves when every second counts.”
The need for blood doesn’t take a summer vacation — immediate access to blood products is a key part of safety throughout the summer and the entire year. Donors of all blood types are urged to schedule an appointment to give blood to ensure a stable blood supply for patients in need.
All presenting donors will receive an Operation Blood Drive T-shirt, while supplies last! Come to give and we’ll say thanks with a $15 Amazon.com Gift Card by email. PLUS, you’ll automatically be entered for a chance to win one of two $7,000 gift cards! (Our Western North Carolina chapter is also proud to showcase local foods from local restaurants and offer prizes throughout the day.)
Appointments can be made by downloading the Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting RedCrossBlood.org and using sponsor code ‘OBD2025’, or calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767).
