My team
Why this is important to me!
Hello!
My name is Anna Laursen and I am an incoming junior at UMass Amherst. I am running the Falmouth road race this August for team Detect Together. Detect Together is an amazing organization whose mission is to spread awareness for early cancer detection. This mission is near and dear to my heart since I have lost both of my grandmothers (and other relatives and close family friends) to cancer. I am running this race in memory of them.
Any donations would be greatly appreciated!
Description
The worst cancer diagnosis is a late one. That’s why I’m running for DetecTogether. They teach people how to detect cancer early, when it’s most treatable and survivable.
40% of us are going to get cancer. One of the most important factors to surviving is the stage of cancer when it is first diagnosed. Early detection makes all the difference.
DetecTogether teaches a simple, powerful strategy for detecting cancer early. They teach in schools, present to community groups, and to those at high risk, like firefighters, and empower people to get better healthcare overall.
Their life-saving presentations and information are delivered at no cost, thanks to the kindness and generosity of donors.
Would you consider supporting me? Together, we can make a difference in the fight against cancer.
