My Story…
This November, I will be running the Philadelphia Marathon as a member of Team AACR, American Association for Cancer Research.
Cancer hits home to many of us, including my own family. Back in 2019, I lost my father to a long courageous battle with colon cancer. Since then, many other people close to me have lost their lives to cancer, including my aunt, father-in law and my sister in-laws father. Like so many other families, our family experienced many times the heartbreak, grief and sadness that this awful disease can bring.
Running a marathon is a significant challenge, but I will carry my father’s memory in my heart every step of the way. His strength, determination and perseverance continue to inspire me. Each mile I run will be dedicated to my father and to all of the people whose lives have been affected by cancer.
The AACR supports cancer research to prevent, detect, and treat cancer. I would be incredibly grateful for your support as I raise money to help end cancer for life. Every donation, regardless of size, makes a difference and matters! It brings us one step closer to a cure to end the disease that has taken too many lives.
Thank you for supporting me, honoring my father's memory, and joining me in the fight against cancer. Together, we can help make a difference.
Your generosity and support mean more than words can express. Thank you!!
