As many of you know, and many of you do not, my mom has breast cancer. The past year, my mom has shown her resilience and will to overcome anything life throws at her - from her double mastectomy to final stages of radiation. She is so inspirational. My mom is my idol, always has been, always will. I am running the marathon for her.
I want to help Susan G. Komen save lives and end breast cancer forever. 1 in 8 women in the U.S. will be impacted by breast cancer in their lifetime, which is why I’m fundraising to help support Komen’s vision of a world without breast cancer.
As the world’s largest and most impactful breast cancer organization, Susan G. Komen supports more breast cancer research than any other nonprofit outside the U.S. government, while providing real-time help to those facing the disease.
