My friends! Welcome to my page. i have been doing this walk for awhile. The walk in September will be my 12th years!

12 straight years!  

One of my main goals is this is to spread the word and try to get as many folks involved as I can To help with this incredible cause for this incredible place doing this incredible work. 

Last year, I had 116 donors. No amount is too small. I’d rather have 100 people donate $5 each than a single person chip in $500, if we’re being honest.

One thing I started last year was what I call a Dollar:Donor pledge. For every individual donor I get, I will pledge an extra dollar right before the pages close shortly after the walk.  I’m continuing that again this year. 

So, if you’re financially able, chip in a small donation. No pressure if you can’t. I can say with certainty I know the financial struggle situation. 

Either way, thank you for coming and reading this page and let’s continue this battle for the kids. .

                         About St. Jude’s: 

Since its founding 60 years ago, treatments invented at St. Jude have helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20 percent to more than 80 percent. 

And because St. Jude shares the breakthroughs it makes, every child saved at St. Jude means doctors and scientists worldwide can use that knowledge to save thousands more children.

Thank you for supporting me and the lifesaving work happening at St. Jude today. Let’s cure childhood cancer. Together.
