Red Door Community is New York City’s preeminent nonprofit cancer support organization helping everyone and anyone impacted by cancer. A welcoming place that provides a full complement of FREE cancer support, emotional and educational programs, and healthy lifestyle workshops online and in-person. Because only Red Door Community is committed to providing unwavering support at every stage of the cancer experience, so no one faces cancer alone.
Red Door Community provides free emotional, social, and practical support to New Yorkers impacted by cancer—patients, caregivers, and loved ones—through programs offered in-person or online.
Red Door Runners are the organization’s official charity running team: a dedicated group of individuals who transform their miles into meaningful support for our community members whose lives have been touched by cancer. As runners, fundraisers, and ambassadors, they commit not only to race training, but to expanding awareness and generating resources that sustain Red Door Community’s work.
Some Red Door Runners are seasoned marathoners. Others are first-time race participants. What they share is a belief that it takes community to ensure No One Faces Cancer Alone.
The funds our Red Door Runners raise for the NYCRUNS Brooklyn Half Marathon will help make possible:
Support Groups
Individual Counselling
Health & Wellness Workshops
Community-building events
Access to trusted cancer education and resources
“Cancer can be isolating. Red Door Community creates a space where people feel seen, supported, and understood.” — Red Door Community Member
