Melissa’s Race
May 3 @ 7:00 am - 9:00 am

Join us in Historic Downtown Sanford for Melissa’s Race to Battle Brain Cancer! 



Our 5K fundraiser on May 3rd, 2025, aims to support brain cancer research at Advent Health Cancer Institute. 

Our daughter, Melissa, was a teacher in Sanford at Midway Elementary School before she lost her life to brain cancer in 2013. We would love it if you could help us honor Melissa Vosburg’s memory and raise awareness. This is our 10th year doing our race in Sanford, and we have raised over half a million for our cause. Every cent raised goes directly to brain cancer research. This year, we are really looking for local support.






Your donation can help us reach our goal of funding vital brain cancer research. For every $10 you donate or fundraise, you’ll earn an entry into our exciting raffle for a chance to win a $5,000 shopping spree or two tickets to see the Orlando Magic!
The more you contribute, the more chances you have to win! Whether you can participate in the race or not, your support is crucial. Create a fundraiser with your friends, neighbors, or local organizations-every little bit counts!
Thank you for your support, and we hope to see you at our the 10th Annual Melissa’s Race to Battle Brain Cancer, presented by Orlando Neurosurgery, taking place on May 3, 2025.
