Why I support St. Jude:

This is my 15th year running this event. It is something I am passionate about and not even sure why. I just know I could not imagine for one second what it would be like to be a mother, father, sibling or child going through this experience. I can only imagine it would be life changing and when life rocks your world and you don't know how you will get through every day. I just want to be on the other side cheering on that family. I want them to know, they are not alone. They don't know me personally and vise versa but I know through my actions I can make a difference in their lives. St. Jude Children's Hospital gives freely what they learn in their hospitals to other hospitals. I feel a sense of pride that they are working together for the greater good. That they have a mission in bedded in love and healing. I hope that through my actions, I can encourage others to get involved. Together we can move mountains and children do not deserve this. What I learn from the child that go through cancer. Boy they are determined, they are strong and they are a child of God. There is beauty in it all. God has a plan and I want to help.

Thank you for visiting my St. Jude Runs fundraising page!

St. Jude Runs is more than a run — I’m going the distance to support the mission of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital: Finding cures. Saving children.®

Every dollar makes an impact, and I need your help to reach my goal! Can I count on your donation to help the kids of St. Jude? 

Treatments invented at St. Jude have helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20 percent to more than 80 percent since it opened 60 years ago— but there is still work to be done.

St. Jude won't stop until no child dies from cancer, and neither will I. Will you support me by making a donation today? Let’s cross the finish line together!
