I am a St. Jude Hero! I have chosen to run for a reason bigger than myself by fundraising for the kids and families at St. Jude. I am training to cross the finish line on race day and with your donation we can cross the fundraising finish line together because the money you donate helps find a cure for childhood cancer.
WHO AM I?
I am a mom of 4, and I have been running since 2016. My first Run Rock n Roll race was in 2017, right before getting pregnant with my 3rd child. I have run this race series several times, but this is my first time being a St. Jude Hero. My financial goal is $500, but secretly, I would love to get to the maximum of $3k.
WHY AM I DOING THIS?
My brother battled throat cancer and is a survivor. I run for him
My best friend battled breast cancer and is a survivor. I run for her.
Jack is a spunky 6 year old who battled brain cancer and is a survivor. I run for him.
My 4th baby has special needs and is medically complex. She is a warrior, and I run for her.
Did you know:
- Families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food - because all a family should worry about is helping their child live.
- Treatments invented at St. Jude have helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20% to more than 80% since it opened more than 50 years ago. St. Jude won't stop until no child dies from cancer.
- St. Jude freely shares the discoveries it makes, and every child saved at St. Jude means doctors and scientists worldwide can use that knowledge to save thousands more children.
Donate today to help me reach my goal. Even when the race is over, the fight to end childhood cancer continues.
