IQ Solutions To Sponsor BOO! Run for Life for Tenth Year

IQ Solutions is honored to support the BOO! Run for Life 10K Run and Tidal Basin Walk in Washington, D.C. for the tenth year in a row. This event, which takes place on Sunday, October 1, 2017, raises funds for the Dean. R. O’Neill Renal Cell Cancer Research Fund at the Foundation for National Institutes of Health.

In 2017 thus far, there have been an estimated 63,990 new cases of kidney and renal pelvis cancer in the United States¹. And while the 5-year relative survival rate continues to increase, there is still much research to be done. The Fund supports a specialized research program at the NIH to identify new treatment options, as well as explore existing ones. You can learn more about the Fund, here.

Our IQ staff look forward to another great race year! If you’re interested in participating, register here. We look forward to seeing you there!
