The Janice Overbeck Real Estate Team was the proud Title Sponsor of Saturday’s Fiesta 5K Challenge in Cumming, GA. An inspiring annual event benefiting the Emory ALS Research Center. Organized by Cure for ALS, the race united nearly 400 participants in a shared mission: to raise critical funds and awareness for the fight against Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).
Janice Overbeck had the proud honor of co-hosting the awards ceremony, celebrating the accomplishments of runners and walkers who showed up rain or shine in support of this life-changing cause.
The Emory ALS Research Center is recognized as a national leader in ALS research and clinical care. The center is at the forefront of uncovering the causes of ALS, pioneering innovative treatment strategies, and advancing clinical trials that offer new hope to patients and their families. Thanks to these efforts, many ALS patients are living longer, higher-quality lives, but the urgency for continued research remains.
“We are honored to support such a meaningful cause and contribute to groundbreaking research that offers hope to so many,” said Janice Overbeck, founder of The Janice Overbeck Real Estate Team. “It was incredible to see our community come together to run, walk, and stand in solidarity with those affected by ALS.”
The Fiesta 5K Challenge has become a beacon of community spirit and advocacy, with proceeds directly benefiting the continued efforts of Emory’s researchers and clinicians.
