Created in 1994 through the committed efforts of the Entertainment Industry Foundation, Lilly Tartikoff and Ronald O. Perelman, the EIF Revlon Run/Walk For Women has grown to become one of the nation's largest single day fundraising events.

To date, the Run/Walks (in LA and NY) have distributed over $68 million for cancer research, treatment, counseling and outreach programs.
