Friends & Family:
This June, I will be participating in AVON 39 - The Walk to End Breast Cancer. AGAIN, I am dedicating this walk to my life-long friend, KATHY SANTOS. We attended school together in Raynham from 1st thru 8th grade, travelled to Taunton to Coyle & Cassidy for high school and then roomed for 4 years together at Providence College. She is family and her family is my family. Four years ago, Kathy was diagnosed with Breast Cancer and a year ago, she received the news that she has Metastatic Breast Cancer that has spread to her spine. She is taking daily chemo meds and is taking it one day at a time. Kathy is such a positive soul and is an AMAZING inspiration to us all. She is such an important part of my past and present and I want to do everything that I can to make sure that she's forever in my future.
This walk isn't easy, but that’s why it's worth it. It will be two days and 39 miles of sore muscles and crazy blisters, but I'm ready to take on the challenge! From now until AVON 39 weekend, I’ll train to strengthen my body to walk over 39 miles in two days. I’ll also be raising funds to crush breast cancer.
You can make a donation right here on my webpage by clicking the "Donate Now" button to the right. If you prefer to write a check, click the “Donate By Mail” button and follow the instructions on the form.
Your donations will be managed and disbursed by the Avon Breast Cancer Crusade. The dollars you pledge will put food on the table of a breast cancer patient and her family. They will enable access to mammograms and medicine, fuel research, and save lives. Need any more reason to click that Donate Now button?
I’m walking with thousands of other 39ers and close to 100 fellow Treasured Chests team members. We’re banding together in solidarity and have one goal: to take breast cancer down. So many sisters and mothers and friends have been lost. We see a world without breast cancer for our daughters and nieces. AVON 39 is a force of change that can’t be stopped. By supporting me with a donation, you’re part of it.
