Registration opens for 26th annual Heaven Can Wait 5K, St. Charles annual breast cancer fundraiser

REDMOND, Ore. (KTVZ) -- St. Charles Foundation invites the community to register for the 26th annual Heaven Can Wait 5K, which will take place on Sunday, Oct. 5 at 10:30 a.m. at Redmond High School.

Heaven Can Wait is a family-friendly walk and run that raises funds for Sara’s Project, which provides education, early detection and support services to people across Central and Eastern Oregon facing breast cancer.

Since it began in 2000, Heaven Can Wait has welcomed 59,637 participants, including 5,729 breast cancer survivors and has raised over $1.75 million to support local cancer patients and their families.

“Heaven Can Wait is all about coming together as a community, celebrating survivors and supporting those affected by breast cancer,” said Jenny O’Bryan, director of St. Charles Foundation. “It’s such a wonderful, heartwarming event, and it’s amazing to see survivors connect and celebrate how far they’ve come.”

Participants can register and begin fundraising at this webpage.
