SMU Student-athlete alumni Stephanie and Jason Dagelewicz founded Move for Miles when their second son, Miles, was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer at the age of 3. The organization aims to bring joy to children and families going through cancer treatment via the most natural childhood pastime “powerful play.” Events such as Sunday’s field day work to spread joy, get people moving, and raise much-needed funds to continue childhood cancer research.
