What is PHL24


PHL24 is a 24 hour stair climbing endurance event held annually at the Art Museum steps in Philadelphia.

On September 10th and 11th, 2022, we will climb the Rocky Steps for 24 continuous hours so that no cancer patient or their family members in Philadelphia go without food on their tables or a roof over their heads.   

We are fully committed to raising enough money to ensure no cancer patient or family member living in Philadelphia goes hungry in 2023. We promise never to quit, but we need your support.  With a fundraising goal of $150,000, we remain steadfast in our resolve to make a lasting impact on the lives of those who have nowhere else to turn.  We promise to leave our Legacy of Hope. 

Check out Legacy of Hope's Emergency Patient Support Network .  To date we’ve prevented hunger for 4,589 cancer patients and family members living in Philadelphia.  With your support, we can do even more.
