Paddle For A Cause Celebrates 20th Anniversary on June 13th

The Dean Randazzo Cancer Foundation (DRCF), fresh off the news of an exciting collaboration with Yards Brewing, is thrilled to announce the return of one of it’s flagship fundraisers, the 20th anniversary Paddle For A Cause, on Saturday, June 13, 2026, at Ski Beach in Ventnor, NJ.

As one of the DRCF’s two flagship fundraisers, in conjunction with Surf For A Cause held annually in September, this milestone event unites paddlers of all skill levels — from elite athletes to first-time participants — in a powerful display of community and endurance. Racers will set off at 7am on the signature 22.5-mile Paddleboard journey around Absecon Island, with a shorter, beginner-friendly course also available so everyone can join in the effort to support families affected by cancer.

More than a race, Paddle For A Cause promises a full day of celebration!  Spectators and participants alike can enjoy live entertainment, delicious food, giveaways, vendors, and a festive waterfront atmosphere throughout the day.

The 2026 event is proudly sponsored by DeSatnick Real Estate, whose ongoing support plays a vital role in making this landmark fundraiser possible.

Since its founding in 2001, the Dean Randazzo Cancer Foundation — a 501(c)(3) nonprofit — has provided essential financial assistance and resources to individuals and families battling cancer. Now in its 20th year, Paddle For A Cause remains one of the Foundation’s most impactful events, channeling community spirit into meaningful, life-changing support.
