Raising over $150,000 for cancer research, Arnopolin emphasizes how his approach isn’t exclusive – anyone can do it. – Cancer Research Institute

Quoting Cancer Research Institute on LinkedIn:

“It all started with an idea- CRI Board of Trustees member Yacov Arnopolin wanted to raise money for a cause that was close to his heart, and honor his father, who was recently diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Arnopolin decided to organize an extreme fitness challenge, entailing a one-mile run, 100 pullups, 200 pushups, 300 squats, and another one-mile run – all with a weighted vest on, in under an hour.

Reaching out to friends and colleagues with the details of the challenge, he also touted CRI’s commitment to putting 88 cents of every dollar donated back into research. ‘As someone that works in finance, I’m a little bit of a nerd. The efficiency with which CRI approaches everything is far higher than many other nonprofits,’ he says.

Raising over $150,000 for cancer research, Arnopolin emphasizes how his approach isn’t exclusive- anyone can do it. ‘Getting involved really matters and it’s very fulfilling. You really get surprised when you open up about your story, and you say what you’re doing,’ he describes.”
