My Story…
Help us punch out Parkinson's and cancer! In about a month, I will be running the Falmouth Road Race. I am running as part of the Shawn Thornton Foundation charity team. For those of you who are not familiar with the Shawn Thornton Foundation, it was founded by Shawn Thornton, a former NHL player, to find cures for Parkinson’s disease and cancer. The Foundation strives to raise awareness about Parkinson’s and cancer, while funding innovative research and improving the quality of life for patients and their families.
The mission of the Thornton Foundation is close to me as my Mom, Sandy, has lived with Parkinson’s for more than ten years. She is the toughest person I know. So I suppose I can drag my ass seven miles and across the finish line so support a good cause.
Thank you to everyone that has already donated. We are only part way to our fundraising goal. Your donation will help us find a cure and knockout Parkinson’s and cancer. No amount is too small and every donation helps! Your donation is also tax deductible.
Thank you all for your generous support and continued encouragement.
Best,
Brett
