I'm fundraising in memory of Patty & in support of Uncle Bill & everyone fighting Pancreatic Cancer

Our family was deeply affected by pancreatic cancer with the loss of our close friend Patty, who was taken from us in her early 40's by this awful disease. Sadly we have also recently had an extended family member diagnosed with advanced stage pancreatic cancer.

As we've done for the past 15 years, we'll walk again on Sunday April 19th in the Lustgarten Foundation's Walk for Pancreatic Cancer Research. Lustgarten is the nation's largest private supporter of pancreatic cancer research and we raise money each year to support Lustgarten's vision of transforming pancreatic cancer into a curable disease.

Thanks to advances in treatment, overall U.S. cancer death rates are steadily dropping. Sadly, survival rates for pancreatic cancer are still dismal. Simply stated, more money is needed to help researchers identify better treatments & a cure. Your contribution will help us achieve our goal so that more funding can be allocated for research into early detection & new treatments to make pancreatic cancer a curable disease.

The process for donating is fast, easy & secure. And, thanks to separate funding to support administrative expenses, 100% of your donation goes directly to pancreatic cancer research to improve patient outcomes.

Together, we can turn the promise of a cure into a reality - any contribution you can make is greatly appreciated!
