My Story

 

This year, I joined the ONE Komen community and registered for the Susan G. Komen RACE FOR THE CURE along with my coworkers on the Axens Pink Warriors Team.  

This is a meaningful opportunity for me because my mom was a breast cancer survivor and lived for many years after successfully beating breast cancer. 

This race also marks the 1 year anniversary of my mom's passing, and I thought this would be a good way to honor her memory. My mom was a smart, witty, strong and accomplished woman who overcame many challenges in her life including three different bouts with different cancers. But like many determined immigrant women she faced life's challenges with little fuss and a whole lot of grit.

So, I am truly dedicated to the mission of the Komen foundation - ending breast cancer through scientific research and providing support to women with breast cancer as well as their families.

Please consider making a tax-deductible donation today in support of the Komen Foundation.

Thanks for your support!
