This year, I joined the Komen community and registered for the Susan G. Komen MORE THAN PINK Walk. I am a breast cancer survivor (May 2017) 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.

Two decades ago, when I began distance running, I chose the fight against cancer as my cause. And, this is still a mission that remains close to my heart today. When I was diagnosed with breast cancer, there was NO ONE in my family tree with a known history. This is why it’s so important that we continue our annual mammograms and self check analysis. Did you know that 1 in every 8 women in your friend or family group will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime? And are you aware that men can get breast cancer also. Cancer as a whole ranks #2 behind heart disease as the leading cause of death in the USA.

Your support brings us one step closer to a world without breast cancer. Every donation helps fund breakthrough research while providing critical emotional, financial, and care-navigation support to those facing breast cancer today.

Ending breast cancer needs all of us, and your generosity can make a real difference. I’ve set a personal goal of $300.00. Together, let’s show breast cancer patients there’s a whole community standing by their side.

Will you please join me in this fight by making your donation today? 

With all my love, Wendy!
