Run, Walk, Bike, and More for a World Without NEC

Whether you are interested in hosting an event, forming a team, or repping our jersey in a race, we would love you to join us in moving for a world without NEC.

Move for a World Without NEC

Join us in making a difference! Over 100 dedicated individuals have already run 26.2 miles to honor families affected by NEC. We’ve had advocates host countless community walks and events for the NEC Society, and people from across the globe proudly wear the NEC Society jersey.

We want YOU to be part of the movement. Join us in moving for a world without NEC.

Email our Development Director, Julia Goldstein, at julia@necsociety.org to move for a world without NEC.

California International Marathon

The NEC Society had 26 runners cross the finish line at the California International Marathon (CIM) in 2024 in honor of babies affected by NEC. Together, we honored families and raised over $20,000 to propel the NEC Society’s work.

We’d love for YOU to sign up and join us at CIM in 2025. Email our Development Director, Julia, at julia@necsociety.org to get involved.

Host an Event for the NEC Society

Many families choose to organize local events to honor the children and families affected by NEC. It’s a meaningful way to recognize a birthday, milestone, or significant anniversary. These events are a great opportunity to share your story, raise awareness, and provide the NEC Society with the necessary resources to fuel our work.

We would love for you to host a family benefit, walk, run, golf outing, gala, dinner party, barbecue, bake sale, garage sale, and more!
