Team Wildflowers is back for 2026! Please join us!

Founded in 2019, Team Wildflowers continues to make a huge impact on cancer research at the University of Wisconsin via our Badger Challenge fundraising. We would love for YOU to join us and make 2026 our most impactful year yet!

To further our mission of ending cancer, we need two things:
Team members to run, walk or bike; and, donations to help us fight cancer!

If you're here to join Team Wildflowers: Welcome! Anyone is welcome to join, so please spread the word to family and friends. You can participate in person or virtually. Fundraising is optional but HIGHLY encouraged. Our registration fees go toward putting on the event, so we need fundraising dollars in order to send funding toward cancer research. Fundraising is the key to making a difference!

If you're here to donate: Wonderful! All contributions are appreciated; no amount is too small. Badger Challenge's mission is to give 100% of all participant-raised dollars (yes, every penny!) to the most promising UW cancer initiatives both in the laboratory and clinic setting. Since 2016, Badger Challenge has raised over $5.5 million and we see exactly where that money goes as they announce their Scholars each year!

If you can't join the team or donate, please share this page with your family and friends. 

Thank you so much for your generosity! Together, we can help write the story that ends cancer!
