Help Taylor raise money

For participating in THE CHALLENGE 5K RUN/WALK

My Story…

It's sad to say but we all know someone with cancer. Little did I know this would hit so close to home in August 2014. I was driving to Kokomo for my last day of my internship when I received a call from my mom saying my grandfather aka Poppie was in the hospital. I immediately turned around, picked up my dogs and headed home. Poppie is never the one to be sick or in the hospital. I knew it took a lot for my family to call me and must be serious. Ever since then, there have been many tests, doctor appointments and a 15 day stay in the hospital. From that point on, my grandfather has received countless blood transfusions, platelet transfusions and chemo treatments. I'm running this race for him! I am running this race for all the families and friends who are affected by cancer. I have never ran a 5k before but going to do my absolute best. Please consider pledging myself or my team to aid in cancer research with the Purdue Cancer Research.
