In the summer of 2013 I rode my bike from Baltimore’s Inner Harbor to Portland’s Pioneer Square. It was a life changing experience and the best summer of my life. It is hard to sum up the impact the 4K had in my life but I left Portland wanting to do more to keep fighting for those who shouldn't have to fight alone.
Since then I have participated in 5K's, Marathons and Duathlons to support the mission of Team Fight and Ulman Cancer Fund. I joined Key to Keys 2017 to continue to bring awareness and support to cancer patients and provide the support they need to get through treatment and get back on their feet.
I will be biking in memory of my Mother who passed away from endometrial cancer in May 2015. She was my best friend and biggest supporter and I want to continue her legacy by doing something that helps others.
The Ulman Cancer Fund for Young Adults changes lives by creating a community of support for young adults, and their loved ones, impacted by cancer. With your support, the Ulman Cancer Fund is able to provide free support services and resources for the young adult cancer community including:
Cancer to 5K - a 12-week training program designed to introduce or reintroduce cancer survivors to physical activity.
Patient Navigation - a free program (onsite at cancer centers and remotely through our office) that ensures no young adult ever faces cancer alone. We provide one-on-one support & resources to young adults and their families to help them manage the cancer expereience and long-term cancer survival.
Scholarships - a financial assistance program to help young adults continue their education after being affected by cancer through their own diagnosis or the diagnosis of a loved one.
Your donation will help make these programs and our mission possible!
