F
or South Florida cancer survivors, family members and friends, the 14th annual Dolphins Challenge Cancer on February 24 at Hard Rock Stadium was a time to remember loved ones, celebrate personal victories and look forward to the future with hope.
“We could not ask for a better teammate than the Miami Dolphins,” said Stephen D. Nimer, M.D., director of Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center. “Their dedication to supporting cancer research at Sylvester is unparalleled. Year after year, the funds that are raised by the DCC allow Sylvester to recruit and retain some of the world’s best minds in cancer research and provide them with the resources needed to make innovative discoveries and establish lifesaving treatments, bringing us one step closer to a world without cancer.”
With the theme “One Team, One Fight,” DCC XIV broke last year’s record for the number of participants and surpassed the $10.5 million raised for cancer research in 2023. The final tally was 6,702 participants and more than $12 million raised, fulfilling the program’s overall $75 million commitment two years ahead of schedule. The Dolphins-led year-round initiative is the NFL’s largest fundraising event, with 100% of the donations going to Sylvester.
