The Valley Hospital Foundation to Host Third Annual “Step Up for Valley” Virtual Fitness Challenge

PARAMUS, NJ, August 20, 2024 – The Valley Hospital Foundation is pleased to announce the third annual Step Up for Valley virtual fitness challenge will take place from September 7 to September 14, 2024. The proceeds from this week-long challenge will be donated to Valley-Mount Sinai Comprehensive Cancer Care to support advancements in cancer research.

“Step Up for Valley is an opportunity for our community to come together and get moving, have fun, and support the hospital that takes care of us and of our families,” said Jeff Seidler, Step Up for Valley event chair and Valley Hospital Foundation Trustee. “We’re excited to expand this year’s event with many new fitness activities to choose from, and we look forward to making a difference for patients who rely on Valley for their cancer care.”

Participants can join the challenge individually or create a team. Registration is $75 per individual and sponsorship opportunities are available.

Participants will create their own fundraising pages where they will track their fundraising, record their physical activity, and share these accomplishments with their family and friends. Each participant and team will earn points for fundraising, recruiting other participants, and getting those “steps” in through walking, running, biking, and a variety of new activities added this year.

Participants have the opportunity to win one of 10 grand prizes, which include a ProForm Fitness Mirror with a one-year ProForm subscription, Apple watches, Valley Health LifeStyles memberships, and more, as well as a chance to win daily door prizes just for participating.

All are encouraged to do their best and have fun! To learn more and to register, please visit ValleyHospitalFoundation.org/StepUp.
