Emma Stone joins fight against cancer

New York: Actress Emma Stone joined the fight against cancer at the Entertainment Industry Foundation Revlon Run/Walk for Women here.

"The Amazing Spider-Man 2" co-hosted the event with Andy Cohen Saturday, reports eonline.com.

The event is especially close to Stone's heart because her mother Krista Stone was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer in 2008.

The first EIF Revlon Run/Walk for Women was held in 1994 and the events have raised more than $70 million.

The money goes toward research, treatment and financial support for women facing cancer.
