DESCRIPTION:The Jack McGovern Coats’ Disease Foundation is thrilled to announce a new 
 location for the return of the annual Cure Coats’ 5K Run/Walk, happening 
 June 21, 2025, at Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. Media outlets are 
 invited to cover the event in person and help spread awareness of this 
 vital cause.\n\nThis year’s 5K features both In-Person and Virtual 
 participation options, making it accessible to supporters everywhere. 
 Whether you walk, run, dance, bike, or even golf your way to 5K, every step 
 supports the Foundation’s mission to find a cure for Coats’ Disease, a 
 rare eye disease that causes leakage of fluids in the eye that can lead to 
 retinal detachment, vision loss, blindness, and sometimes even the loss of 
 the eye. The majority of patients are diagnosed as children, and often too 
 late for early intervention to prevent vision loss. Currently, there is no 
 cure.\n\nEvent Highlights:\n•	In-Person 5K: Saturday, June 21, 
 2025\no	Location: Golden Gate Park, Meadow near Pioneer Log Cabin and Blue 
 Heron Lake\no	Time: Race begins at 9:00 a.m.; Registration begins at 8:00 
 a.m.\no	All participants receive a commemorative t-shirt and 
 wristband\n\n•	Virtual 5K: June 21-28, 2025\no	Participants choose their 
 own activity and location\no	Perfect for those who want to support the 
 cause from anywhere in the world\n\nNow in its 8th year, the Cure Coats’ 
 5K brings together patients, families, doctors, and advocates dedicated to 
 defeating Coats’ Disease. This rare retinal disease primarily afflicts 
 infants and children; 75% of patients are male. There is no known cause of 
 this devastating disease. All proceeds benefit the Jack McGovern Coats’ 
 Disease Foundation, which funds critical research, raises awareness, and 
 provides resources for affected families.\n\nRegister or learn more at:
