Donate

Your gift could provide a one month supply of Tamoxifen, a drug used to treat breast cancers that rely on estrogen for growth, to a patient in need. Every 60 seconds, somewhere in the world, someone dies from breast cancer. Your gift will help save lives! Your gift could provide a screening mammogram to an uninsured or underinsured person in need. Your gift could provide a breast prosthesis for an uninsured or underinsured woman in need. Your gift will help us reach our bold goal to reduce the current number of breast cancer deaths by 50% in the U.S. within the next decade!

My Event: 2025 Komen Detroit Race for the Cure

Date: Saturday, September 13, 2025

MY STORY

On September 13, I will be participating in the Race for the Cure for the 23rd time. Two years ago, I was celebrating my 20th year as a breast cancer survivor only to learn two days later that I had breast cancer for the second time resulting in surgery last year. However, I remain grateful & fortunate to have received excellent care & make it a point to "give back" by participating in this event.

Over the years, we have contributed thousands of dollars for breast cancer treatment, education, research & support services. Due to your overwhelming support last year, we contributed $2400, far exceeding my fundraising goal. I hope you will join me in the fight against breast cancer again - please go to the link below. Any donation is truly appreciated! And don't forget to let me know if Allan, Jonathan & I can walk in memory or in honor of a loved one. Thanks for your support!
