About Geaux Bald 5k & 10k
Geaux Bald 5K & 10K is a student-led charity race organized by second-year medical students at LSU Health Shreveport to support local cancer patients and their families. Founded in 2011, Geaux Bald raises funds to ease the financial and logistical burdens faced by patients undergoing cancer treatment. Proceeds from this race directly support the restoration of the McDade House, a hospitality home that will provide low- or no-cost lodging for patients receiving care at the Feist-Weiller Cancer Center. Nearly half of Feist-Weiller patients travel over 20 miles for treatment, often requiring multi-day stays close to the hospital. By providing a safe, home-like environment, the McDade House allows patients to focus on healing rather than housing. In the 2024–2025 year alone, Geaux Bald raised over $50,000 toward this mission. Join us by running, walking, or supporting the Geaux Bald 5K & 10K and help make compassionate care more accessible in our community.
