For the third year in a row, this event continues to bring our community together for a cause that is deeply personal to our family. Our mission is simple:
💜 Honor Ana’s beautiful memory
💜 Encourage physical activity that is good for both body and soul
💜 Support families facing the unimaginable journey of pediatric cancer
To everyone who has participated in previous years — THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts. Your kindness, support, and presence have helped us make a real difference. And to those joining us for the first time this year — welcome to our Ana Banana family! 💜
📢 BIG NEWS THIS YEAR!

The Ana Molnar Foundation’s mission this year is to help two more families battling pediatric cancer. While we wish no child ever had to suffer from this disease, we are currently working with two families who are courageously facing this difficult journey.
We are also incredibly grateful to the sponsors who have already stepped forward to support this year’s event. A very special THANK YOU to:
🎧 DJ Cipri Pop — for saying “YES” for the third year in a row!

🏗️ New Explode Construction — our second-year main sponsor!

🧁 Adore Sweets — for their generosity and support!

What makes this even more special is that these businesses offered their help without even being asked. Than you! 💜
We are currently looking for additional sponsors and supporters who would like to join us in making this event another success and helping two more families this year.
We cannot wait to see everyone at the start/finish line! 💜
