Help Desirae raise money

For participating in 2023 Flying Pig Marathon Weekend

My Story…

As many of you know our family was deeply affected this year by lung disease. Pulmonary Fibrosis to be exact. My dad, Gary, was diagnosed 4 years ago. It was a devastating blow to our family. His brother had already passed away from this dreadful disease. So we knew medically, what awaited him.  The only option with this particular disease is a lung transplant or death. Scary odds! On November 5th, Dad received the life giving gift of a lung transplant! He is on the road to recovery and doing AMAZING! (profile pic: day of surgery vs 10 weeks post transplant.) 

This year I signed up to run the Flying Pig Half Marathon and was happy to find out that the American Lung Association was a partner charity! I am running to raise awareness and raise funds for so many affected by lung disease and lung cancer. 

Please make a donation that will save lives. Your tax-deductible donation funds lung disease and lung cancer medical research, new treatments, CT screenings, lung health education and more.

Please make a donation today.  Any amount is appreciated. Your gift is vital to helping end lung cancer and lung disease. 

Much Love!

Desirae
