Know what's the absolute worst!?!?!
When someone you know and love gets affected by cancer. Cancer forces its way into your life and has an unfortunately massive impact on every aspect of who you are.
It wears on you physically, mentally, emotionally, and causes indescribeable pain and destruction.
Cancer has affected my life deeply, and I'm sure you or someone you know and love has been affected as well.
But here's the good news....we can crush cancer. Literally, step by step, we can make advancements toward making cancer a distant memory. So our moms, dads, brothers, sisters, children and friends never have to hear a doctor tell them those words that no one wants to hear.
So i'm asking for your help.
Because me and a group of badass inviduals are embarking on a mission to help support those who are fighting their own battle with cancer. We will be running (yes, with our legs) from Baltimore to Key West to raise money, spread awareness, and share HOPE in order to lend love, life and support to those who are currently diagnosed with this nasty disease that no one likes.
I need to raise $5000, and each dollar goes directly toward supporting a young adult who is fighting for thier life.
So I would be FOREVER GRATEFUL if you could contribute to this amazing cause.
Like I said, no shady business when it comes to your donations. Each and every dollar you contribute goes directly toward punching cancer right in the face, so don't hold back!
Plus, I haven't run over 1 mile since like, middle school, so your donations will help inspire my stubby legs to pound the pavement.
Thanks for helping me change the world. YOU ROCK!!
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!
