Queens Get The Miles is proud to participate in the Daniela Conte Foundation's 6th Annual Butterfly 5K on Saturday, April 25th, to support the fight against childhood cancer.

A childhood cancer diagnosis turns a family's world upside down. Often, one parent has to leave their job to become a full-time caregiver, putting an immense financial strain on the household.

DCF is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with a mission to help families pay for:
- rent / mortgage
- car payments / transportation
- utilities
- medical expenses not covered by insurance
- groceries
- memorial assistance for families who have lost their child

No parent should have to choose between putting food on the table and their child’s treatment—or worry about funeral costs while grieving.

Please consider donating, volunteering, running (there’s also a virtual option!), joining our team, or simply sharing this page. Every dollar makes a real difference. And unlike many nonprofits, DCF is 100% volunteer-run, meaning every dollar donated directly supports local NYC and Long Island families.
