Proceeds support two organizations: the Huntington's Disease Society of America Wisconsin Chapter and Guzi's Hunt for the Cure Foundation, Inc. Organizers report more than $380,000 raised over the past five years and a 2026 fundraising goal of $75,000. The foundation provides financial grants to couples affected by Huntington's disease to assist with pre-implantation genetic testing and in vitro fertilization; a single PGT-IVF journey can exceed $35,000 in cost.
The event was launched in 2021 by a local family affected by Huntington's disease. Huntington's disease is described as a rare genetic neurological disorder that causes progressive movement, cognitive, and behavioral changes and affects an estimated 41,000 people in the United States. The event combines community running and walking activities with fundraising for research, support services, and family assistance programs related to Huntington's disease.
