My Story
Breast cancer is very personal for me. I've had family members and friends battle it over the years, some who beat it and some who didn't. In fact, the reason my parents met was because my grandparents sent my dad to a summer sleepaway camp while my grandma was going through treatment and recovering from her double mastectomy, and my parents met there at camp that summer.
My dear friend Keri Brown was diagnosed in March, at just 32 years old, and is finishing up treatments now. She inspired me to inquire with my doctor and get my first mammogram at age 36. I am walking not just for her but also for all my family, family friends, neighbors, etc who have been impacted by breast cancer.
I joined the Komen community and registered for the Susan G. Komen MORE THAN PINK Walk. I am dedicated to Komen's mission of ending breast cancer forever, and I need your help. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation today in support of my fundraising efforts.
Your support helps us get one step closer to a world without breast cancer.

Whether it’s emotional support via Komen’s helpline, financial support through Komen’s financial assistance program, or navigation services to break down barriers to care, Komen will be there for them.
Ending breast cancer needs all of us, and your generosity can make a real difference. Together, let’s show breast cancer patients there’s a whole community standing by their side.
