Run for Jude 5k is in honor of Jude Jawhar who battled Osteosarcoma for four years before she passed away at the age of 18. Although Jude spent the majority of her teen years in the hospital going through multiple surgeries and chemotherapy treatments, she was an extremely motivated individual who had hopes of becoming a nurse to help other children going through a similar situation. 100% of participant registrations/donations will be distributed between Johns Hopkins Hospital and The Jude Jawhar Scholarship for General Nursing at Towson University.
