Queens Get The Mile's Fundraising Page for DCF's Butterfly 5K
Queens Get The Miles
Queens Get The Miles
Queens Get The Miles (QGTM) is a dog-friendly run club in Queens! On Saturday, April 26th, some of us will be running in the Daniela Conte Foundation's 5th Annual 5K for pediatric cancer.
Please help us support the fight against childhood cancer by donating, volunteering, running, or simply sharing this page with friends, family, coworkers, etc. Donations support DCF's Financial & Memorial Assistance programs.
DCF helps families pay for:
- Rent or mortgage
- Car payments, gas, or other treatment travel expenses
- Utility bills
- Medical expenses not covered by insurance
- Groceries or food gift cards
- Memorial assistance for families who have lost their child
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. No parent should have to choose between putting food on the table and their child’s treatment—or worry about funeral costs while grieving.
Unlike many nonprofits, DCF 100% volunteer-run, meaning every dollar donated goes directly to local NYC and Long Island families.
Together, we can help make the lives of patients and their families a little less stressful and a little more cheerful, and work towards finishing Daniela's fight.
🏃 Want to Join Us & Run? 🏃
We'd love to see you there! Register to run (or walk) at 5k.danielacontefoundation.org.

💜 About the Daniela Conte Foundation 💜
The Daniela Conte Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in memory of Daniela Conte. Daniela fought and beat Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma Cancer three times before it returned for a fourth time. In March 2nd, 2020, at just 8 years old, Daniela passed away peacefully in her sleep.
We are approaching 5 years since we began the Daniela Conte Foundation. In this short time, we have provided over $250,000 in financial support to over 500 local pediatric cancer families, donated $30,000 to a Sarcoma Research Project at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, and sent hundreds of Daniela's Butterfly Boxes to children undergoing treatment and their siblings around the country. We continue to be dedicated to raising money for more promising and less toxic treatments for pediatric cancer and to providing financial support to more and more families.
