Broadway's Jason Danieley will honor his late wife, Marin Mazzie, through a new partnership with Cancer Support Community.
On March 17, Danieley will participate in the organization's 2019 United Airlines NYC Half marathon. Danieley is also set to present the first-ever Marin Mazzie Award for Empowerment on April 16.
Mazzie was a recipient of the Award for Empowerment in 2016, which has been renamed for her and will be awarded to a public figure who has used their diagnosis to advocate for others with similar conditions.
Of the partnership, Danieley said, "Marin and I were drawn to CSC by their mission statement, 'to ensure that all people impacted by cancer are empowered by knowledge, strengthened by action, and sustained by community."
"We could think of no better way to share our compassion for others than by assisting CSC in any way we could. This year it is an honor to put 13.1 miles under the treads of my running shoes to raise money to help them continue their great work."
