Every dirham raised goes directly to help fund international-standard cancer research. The research is done by UAE-based researchers and scientists and focuses on the needs of UAE citizens and residents. Last February, over 18,000 people participated in the Run/Walk and every dirham raised – over AED 600,000 – was allocated directly into innovative, carefully vetted and world‐class cancer research projects in Tawam Hospital in Al Ain.
The 1st Abu Dhabi Terry Fox Run was held in 1995. HE Sheikh Sultan bin Hamdan Al Nahyan has been the Patron of the event since its inception. The run is organised by a group of dedicated volunteers.
