The Rees Skillern Cancer Institute at CHI Memorial is the leading provider of adult cancer services in Chattanooga, North Georgia and the surrounding communities – bringing together a team of medical experts with specialized skills, expertise and experience to offer the latest in cancer care. Our comprehensive cancer program meets the physical, spiritual and emotional needs of people facing cancer and their families.

We have consistently maintained accreditation from the American College of Surgeons, Commission on Cancer: program designation, “Comprehensive Community Cancer Program.” At Rees Skillern Cancer Institute, we believe in sharing the latest treatment, patient demographic and outcome data with the communities we serve – to remain transparent about our services and provide the highest quality of care.

The Inaugural River City Ribbon 5K is shifting the conversation from individual cancer communities to unite all cancer patients, families and survivors to provide local funds for local treatments. The funds raised through the run will directly support Tennessee and North Georgia patients – whether increasing mobile screenings for early detection, providing comprehensive assistance to all patients, or increasing treatment options and opportunities to continue to be the leading cancer treatment hospital in the region.

Join us as a sponsor, team leader or individual runner to help unite the cancer community and raise funds and awareness for every cancer!
