Every year, Lookin' For A Cure 5K events light up cities across the United States. These events are not just about running; they are about igniting awareness and unity in the fight against ocular melanoma. By participating, you not only support groundbreaking research but also bring together individuals affected by ocular melanoma.
A Partnership for Progress
A Cure In Sight collaborates with leading research facilities and dedicated physicians specializing in ocular melanoma treatment. Together, we channel the net proceeds from these events into ongoing research projects and patient support programs. Your involvement directly contributes to advancing the quest for a cure.
Your Steps Matter

Bring your friends and family—all ages are welcome to walk or run with us.
