Where Everyone Is A Hero
The Isabella Santos Foundation (ISF) brought the community together for a whimsical, family-friendly morning in Ballantyne to support kids battling rare cancers — where no running is required, but everyone is a hero.
From superhero capes and fairytale crowns to brunch bites, shopping, music and limitless play — the morning overflowed with joy, energy and purpose.
Together, our community raised over $80,000 (and counting!) to fuel research, clinical trials and family support programs at Levine Children’s and Novant Hemby Children’s Hospitals.
BIG NEWS: ISF is excited to announce that the ISF 5K Run for Kids Cancer is back on Saturday, September 26, 2026 at Rea Farms. Mark your calendar and stay tuned for details!
