I'm fundraising for...
About 20 years ago after both of my uncles passed from pancreatic cancer, several of our family members participated in the Lustgarten Walk. Unfortunately this horrifyingly cruel disease has struck my family recently, and feeling helpless was just unbearable. Seeing how much advancements have been made in early detection and treatment within the last 20 years has really inspired me to raise awareness and money for this charity. Throughout the grueling process of watching someone so close to me fight the fight, running became a bit of a self care regimen for me. I've decided to run the TCS NYC Marathon as part of Lustgarten's team. I've never run more than 10 miles in my life, but my goal is not time, it's to raise as much money as we can so we can further advance the clinical trials, cancer care, treatment and early detection to give a better chance at extending lives. Please help me support pancreatic cancer research by making a donation to the Lustgarten Foundation through my personal page for the 2025 TCS NEW YORK CITY MARATHON. Your contribution will help me achieve my goal and drive bold, innovative research with the singular mission of transforming pancreatic cancer into a curable disease.
