Episode 65: Racing for Cures

Guest: Lucia Webb

Jason and Matthew talk with Lucia Webb, U2FP’s Operations Director, about a seemingly minor aspect of our work - our racing and fundraising initiative, Team U2FP. We discuss what Team U2FP is and break down why it’s critical for so much of what we do, especially the legislative bills we’ve passed through our Cure Advocacy Network. We also talk about the impact of Team U2FP for everyone - not just marathon racers and wheelers - as well as opportunities to become involved in and support our work.

As always send us your feedback at curecast@u2fp.org
