I’m raising funds for cancer programs in Brooklyn

I’m running the NYCRUNS Brooklyn Half Marathon on April 23, 2023 for a cause extremely important to me: strengthening access to lifesaving cancer care and research in Brooklyn. 

As part of Team NYU Langone, I’m fundraising to help expand programs that will transform outcomes for individuals and families affected by cancer. Every contribution counts in our efforts to build a healthier Brooklyn for all. 100% of funds raised go to NYU Langone's Perlmutter Cancer Center.

 I run in memory of my father, Vincenzo Pagnotta, who fought a heroic and fearless fight against lung cancer and sadly lost his battle in 2014. I run in honor of my courageous mother, Gerardina Pagnotta, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2020 and is now cancer free! I run for every heroic and courageous patient, survivor, caregiver, family member, provider, researcher, advocate...I run for everyone affected by cancer. Let's do this together. Please join me in making a difference. Together we can make a change.
