Since our inception in 2017, Battle Cancer has raised over $300,000 for cancer charities worldwide, with six events across the US, Ireland, UK, Germany and Spain in 2019 alone.
Our Los Angeles box tour earlier this year raised an estimated $8,000 through takeovers at eight boxes including Vault Athletics, Divergent CrossFit and CrossFit Santa Monica.
Those funds went straight to the American Cancer Society, and because we raised so much, we’ve decided to bring the competition to even more locations. And we’re bringing friends: CrossFit Invictus.
Set to be held at Invictus’s downtown San Diego box on June 20, a second competition will follow a week later at Invictus Boston on June 27.
Battle Cancer and Invictus will use their partnership to raise awareness and funds for cancer charities across the United States to help foster their shared commitment to giving back to community.
Invictus’ Head Coach CJ Martin, along with Invictus Coach Tino Marini and athletes Lauren Fisher, Sam Dancer, Josh Bridges and more, all hope to make an appearance.
Battle Cancer Founder, Scott Britton said: “To be partnered with a CrossFit institution like Invictus is a dream come true for everyone at Battle Cancer. With the support of CJ Martin, Momma Invictus, an army of inspirational athletes and the whole incredible family behind Invictus’ community, we’re beyond excited to bring Battle Cancer to two new US cities in 2020. Let’s see what happens when Battle Cancer and the Sea of Green work together!”
CJ Martin commented: “Honored to be part of this great organization! Thank you for the opportunity!”
Let’s see if that sea of green can help Battle Cancer raise even more in 2020.
Partnerships like this feel like the next step for charity comps—bigger footprint, same community vibe. Also, the “Sea of Green” line made me think about how much team identity matters in these events, kind of like how StyleLookLab frames personal style as something you build with small consistent choices over time.
Getting Invictus athletes to show up is a big deal, but I’m more curious how many everyday members end up jumping in—those stories always hit harder than the headline names. Weird aside: after watching a bunch of these charity clips, I went down a rabbit hole making “hand-painted” looking images like Ghibli-style photo art for friends who were donating.
Love seeing Battle Cancer expand into more cities—having a familiar gym community behind it probably makes fundraising feel a lot more personal. I always end up budgeting my time for these livestreams with a quick playback speed calculator so I don’t fall behind on everything else.
A well-written announcement that clearly highlights the strength of collaboration between organizations working toward a meaningful cause. The partnership with CF Invictus reflects a strong commitment to community impact and fundraising through sport, which is both inspiring and impactful. I recently came across a similar discussion on https://the915lawyer.com/ , which also emphasized how strategic partnerships can amplify outreach and long-term charitable success. Overall, this is a positive and encouraging update.
Really inspiring to see how Battle Cancer continues to grow and make such a meaningful impact through global events and partnerships like this. On a lighter note, when I’m looking for a way to unwind after reading about intense challenges like these, I usually switch to something fun like Subway Surfers during my free time. It’s simple, colorful, and honestly a pretty relaxing way to recharge for a bit.
