After seven terrific years, we are greatly disappointed to announce that as a result of a decision made by Sears Tower building management, Go Vertical Chicago will not take place in 2009. 

We are so grateful to all of you for participating in our climbs and raising money for cancer research.  You have been fantastic to work with - it’s been fun and rewarding, every step of the way.  Most importantly, in our seven years, you helped us raise more than $1.5 million – every penny of which supported the work of top scientists across the country. 

THANK YOU for your energy, enthusiasm and fantastic fundraising efforts!

We urge you to continue to support our work at the Damon Runyon Cancer Research Foundation as we continue to fund the rising stars of science.  We hope to host an alternate event in Chicago for our loyal Go Vertical participants.  If you are interested in helping us develop our plans, please contact us at goverticalchicago@damonrunyon.org.

With many thanks,

The Go Vertical Chicago Team
