ABOUT

The 30th Annual Ellen's Run: An Event of The Ellen Hermanson Foundation, an annual 5k (3.1mile) race, is The Ellen Hermanson Foundation’s signature fundraising event that raises awareness about breast cancer. Held on the East End of Long Island, where breast cancer diagnosis and mortality rates are among the highest in New York, Ellen’s Run draws on the strength of the community and gives back by providing breast health education, screenings, and support. 

The First Annual Ellen’s Run attracted more than 500 participants and raised more than $62,000, an astonishing success for a first-time event. By its third year, the amount of money raised had more than doubled. By its fourth year, Ellen's Run had become the largest race on the South Fork, with nearly 900 registered participants. Now in its 30th year,Ellen’s Run has grown to almost 1,000 participants, and The Ellen Hermanson Foundation has awarded more than $6 million in grants over the last 29 years.

About The Ellen Hermanson Foundation — Since 1997, The Ellen Hermanson Foundation has helped change the medical landscape of the East End of Long Island through its mission to ensure access to quality breast health care and empower those affected by cancer. With a deep commitment to the community, the Foundation gives back by funding state-of-the-art medical equipment and breast cancer screenings at The Ellen Hermanson Breast Center at Stony Brook Southampton Hospital and locations in Hampton Bays and East Hampton. Proceeds also benefit Ellen’s Well, a free psycho-social services program that provides support for breast cancer patients and survivors. No one is turned away from the Ellen Hermanson Breast Center for lack of insurance or inability to pay. The Ellen Hermanson Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
