Last year over 1,000 walkers, runners, and
children participated in the 9th Annual Birthday
Bash & Dash held on July 4, 2016 which would
have been Sophie’s thirteenth birthday.
This event is a major fundraiser benefiting
Smiles For Sophie Forever, a foundation
created in memory of four-year-old Sophie
Quayle, who lost her battle with brain cancer,
after a valiant fight, on October 6, 2007.
Commemorate Sophie’s birthday. Celebrate
our nation’s freedom. Help create freedom from
pediatric brain cancer.
In the past nine years, SFSF has raised and
donated over $800,000 to further its tri-fold
mission.
Proceeds will once again support SFSF, a tax-
exempt 501 (c)(3) organization dedicated to:
• Raising awareness of pediatric brain cancer
• Funding research for its cure
• Supporting St. Jude, where Sophie was
treated
• Helping families affected by pediatric brain
cancer
5 K & 1.5* Mile Run/ Walk Tuesday, July 4, 2017 at 9 A.M. Avon Lake, Ohio
