OUR CAUSE
MORE THAN A RACE
Each year, Bear Canyon runners raise money for an individual or family facing serious hardship. Since 2013, the community has given over $69,000+ — funded through registration fees, donations, and auction items. Just people running for someone who needs it.

THIS YEAR’S CAUSE
MEET THIS YEAR’S RECIPIENT
2026 RECIPIENT
DJ Theorine
DJ is an energetic, fun-loving 8-year-old who loves trains, digging in the dirt, and being the best big brother to Anthony and baby Lilia. In March 2026, what started as leg pain turned into a diagnosis of osteosarcoma — a bone cancer on his fibula.
DJ has completed his first round of chemotherapy and faces surgery and more treatment ahead. Through it all, his one request has been cards — because even in the middle of fighting cancer, DJ's first thought is always about others.

SUPPORT THE CAUSE
Donate Directly
Can't make it to the race? You can still show up for this year's recipient. Direct donations go straight to the cause — no race entry, no finish line required. Every dollar counts.
Bid on Auction Items
The auction opens approximately one week before race day — around October 3rd — so you can browse and place bids whether or not you plan to be at the start line. Bidding stays open through the event on October 10th.
All proceeds go directly to this year's recipient. Three packages are live now — more items will be added as donations come in.
