Cancer Survivors Need Your Support Now More Than Ever

I’ve committed to raising funds for LIVESTRONG to support people navigating cancer at every stage — patients, survivors, and their loved ones. Funds raised help provide critical, free programs like fertility support for young adults facing cancer who hope to build a family one day; the LIVESTRONG at the Y program, which offers fitness and wellness classes at YMCAs to help survivors regain strength and confidence after treatment; and Ellis, Livestrongs AI service that connects individuals to trusted information, and resources, when they need it most.

I hope you’ll join me in making a meaningful impact for those affected by cancer. Would you consider supporting my journey by making a donation today? Every gift — big or small — helps ensure these vital programs remain free and accessible.

Thank you for being part of this mission and for standing with me as I take on this challenge.

With Gratitude,

5K For a Reason

Wednesday 4th Nov
Running for a Reason: Why I’m Taking on the Disney 5K for the Livestrong Foundation
This coming January, I am heading to Walt Disney World to do something that is much bigger than just running a race. I have committed to participating in the Disney 5K to raise vital funds for the Livestrong Foundation. While crossing that finish line in the most magical place on Earth will be an incredible milestone, the real magic is in the mission behind every single mile.
For me, this journey is deeply personal. My mother Noreen was a warrior who has survived multiple bouts of cancer. Watching someone you love fight this disease not once, but multiple times, changes your perspective on everything. It shows you the true meaning of resilience, grit, and hope. She is the reason I am putting on my walking shoes, and she is the inspiration that will carry me through every step of the course.
I chose to partner with Livestrong because their values mirror the strength I witnessed in my mom throughout her battles. Livestrong believes that hope is an action and that companion care should center around the person, not just the disease. They champion resilience, community support, and the belief that cancer should never dictate how you live your life. They don't just focus on a cure for tomorrow; they focus on improving the lives of survivors and their families today.
Every dollar raised through my Disney 5K campaign goes directly to funding Livestrong’s free programs and services that help survivors navigate the physical, emotional, and financial challenges of cancer.
I cannot do this alone. I am asking for your support to help me reach my fundraising goal. Whether you can donate $5, $50, or simply share my page with your network, your contribution makes a direct impact on families just like mine who are fighting back against cancer.
Thank you for standing with me, honoring my mom’s incredible journey, and helping Livestrong prove that we are always stronger together.
together.
