River City Ribbon Run

We are shifting the conversation from individual cancer communities to unite all cancer patients, families and survivors to provide local funds for local treatments. The funds raised through the run will directly support Tennessee and North Georgia patients – whether increasing mobile screenings for early detection, providing comprehensive assistance to all patients, or increasing treatment options and opportunities to continue to be the leading cancer treatment hospital in the region.

The Rees Skillern Cancer Institute at CHI Memorial is the leading provider of adult cancer services in Chattanooga, North Georgia and the surrounding communities – bringing together a team of medical experts with specialized skills, expertise and experience to offer the latest in cancer care. Our comprehensive cancer program meets the physical, spiritual and emotional needs of people facing cancer and their families.

We have consistently maintained accreditation from the American College of Surgeons, Commission on Cancer: program designation, “Comprehensive Community Cancer Program.” At Rees Skillern Cancer Institute, we believe in sharing the latest treatment, patient demographic and outcome data with the communities we serve – to remain transparent about our services and provide the highest quality of care.

Join us for our family-friendly 5K and fun run that's raising money for the Rees Skillern Cancer Institute and supporting every cancer! 100% of the proceeds stay here in Chattanooga to treat and support patients in our community.
