Perseverance: The V Foundation 5k

Get set to participate in the inaugural Perseverance: The V Foundation 5K, a meaningful event happening on Friday, October 31, 2025, at Centennial Campus, North Carolina State University in Raleigh, Wake. Lace up for a cause and support the V Foundation for Cancer Research by walking or running with a goal to raise $5,000 in the fight against cancer. This event during Homecoming Weekend celebrates NC State's spirit of resilience and pride, welcoming students, alumni, faculty, and community members for a day of unity and purpose. Be inspired by guest speaker Brother Tony Knox, a staunch advocate for men's health and cancer awareness, who will share a powerful message about perseverance and advocacy. Join this movement honoring Jimmy Valvano's legacy and embody the spirit of victory through perseverance while contributing to a lasting campus tradition rooted in service, legacy, and unity.
