the cause

Big Buffalo 50 is a different kind of race… a race for a purpose.  For every mile completed by a registered runner, Big Buffalo 50 will donate $1 to the Kids Kickin’ Cancer Soccer Club, which is dedicated to providing a positive environment for kids battling childhood cancers.  

Kids Kickin’ Cancer teaches team members the value of a positive attitude, self-belief and the ability to encourage — and be encouraged by — other kids facing the same circumstances.
