2010 L.A Cancer Challenge, Sunday, October 31
Michael Muhney is hosting the 13th Annual L.A. Cancer Challenge at the Veteran's Administration Grounds in Los Angeles, California. The L.A.C.C. benefits the Hirshberg Foundation for Pancreatic Cancer Research. Sponsor Michael and donate here!

Michael is the Honorary Chairperson and Host for The 13th Annual L.A. Cancer Challenge 5K/10K Run on October 31, 2010. This is Michael's third time to host this important event.

Every Halloween weekend, people of all ages come together to do something amazing. They care. They change lives. And they give a face to hope. More than 5,000 men, women and children of all ages are expected to participate in the 13th Annual L.A. Cancer Challenge; many will be dressed in festive Halloween costumes. In 2009, more than $550,000 was raised, bringing the total dollars raised by the event to over 2.5 million.

The mission of the Hirshberg Foundation is to improve early detection and find a cure for Pancreatic Cancer. Our research at the UCLA Medical Center and our partnerships with research centers around the world are helping speed up the process of finding a cure for all forms of cancer. It’s not impossible.

Sadly, Pancreatic Cancer is one of the deadliest cancers. Vastly improved treatments and an eventual cure can only be achieved through intense research. Yet Pancreatic Cancer is one of the most under-funded cancers. Treatments, earlier detection and a cure can only be achieved with more funding. Yes, you can make a difference in fighting this disease.

This year's public service announcement by Michael will be hosted here and you can view it.
