It's always for the kids!
I am entering my twelfth year of running and raising for the kids and families of St Jude.
My appreciation for St. Jude and it's mission came early in my career as a Music Therapist, when several of my patients were admitted to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital following diagnoses of childhood cancer.
It was then that I learned the lengths that St. Jude and it's donors will go through to make sure that NO FAMILY has to pay for treatment.
Several years later, I had an opportunity to tour the hospital in Memphis and I then learned even MORE about the mission and witnessed science at work as St. Jude doctors and scientists were actively working on cures for childhood cancers.
I made a promise that as long as I can keep running, I will run and raise each year for the kids and Families of St. Jude (and when I can't run, I'll just figure out something else) because every child and every family should be experiencing LIFE.
Please support me as I run to Peoria in July 2024 with my amazing team "We Got the Runs for the Kids".
Thank you for every bit of support.
