Delevingne hit the pavement Saturday to run a 5K in support of the Silent No More Gynecological Cancer Fund. Sporting blue track pants and a gray sweatshirt emblazoned with Lady Garden, Delevingne joined her older sister Chloe Delevingne and others in raising money and awareness of gynecological cancer.

Delevingne shared a picture from the fun run on Instagram with her sister, captioning it, “#LadyGarden5k #LadyGardenCampaign.”

Ahead of the run, Delevingne had reached out to her fans to sponsor her in the 5K and to bring attention to the cause. “I am running the first @GynaeCancerFund #LadyGarden5k in Battersea Park,” she wrote. “If you would like to sponsor me, please go to the link in my bio #LadyGardenCampaign #SilentNoMore #thankyou.”

Earlier this year, the model-turned-actress’s sister opened up about her involvement in the Lady Garden campaign.

“So for the first time ever I’ve decided to put myself out there to raise awareness and hopefully money for a cause terribly close to my heart,” Chloe Delevingne shared on Instagram. “The @gynaecancerfund and the #ladygardencampaign Thank you @youmagsocial for putting my mug on your cover! And @barriegmakeup and @ristylestudio for making me look half decent!”

In the interview, Chloe shared that pre-cancerous cells were found in her cervix at age 20, leading her to have part of her cervix removed. Thanks to the early catch, she’s been able to welcome son Atticus and daughter Juno.

“Without that diagnosis, I wouldn’t have my babies,” she told You Magazine. “I might not even be here talking to you right now. That’s why awareness is my big thing – because I am one of the lucky ones.”
