The third annual Kay Yow Cancer Fund Celebration Run/Walk will be Saturday, February 16 at Stafford Commons in Raleigh. WithersRavenel is proud to be a sponsor for the event. We will cover the cost for employees to register and are encouraging participants to bring their families. The walk is a 4K in distance with a mini-K option.

In her 38 years as a college basketball coach, most of that time at N.C. State, Kay Yow recorded more than 700 career victories. She was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 1987 and fought a 22-year battle with the disease while continuing to lead the Wolfpack. Yow died in 2009.
Yow is a member of the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame and leaves a lasting legacy not only as a coach, but also as a beacon of strength in the fight against cancer.
