Dear Family and Friends,
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.
This October, I will be participating in Exeter Hospital's United in Wellness Virtual Cancer Walk & Trick or Treat Trot 5K to help support cancer treatment programs and services at Exeter Hospital's Center for Cancer Care. This year I will walking in memory of my sister, Anne-Marie Viviano, and my mother-in-law, Barbara Shaw, who both passed away from breast cancer.
Like so many, cancer is a disease that has directly impacted the lives of my family and friends. Unfortunately, most of us know someone who has heard the devastating words, “You have cancer." As cancer has touched the lives of far too many, I have made the commitment to raise funds to support this cause so dear to my heart.
Please consider making a donation to support our local community and those who may be facing their greatest challenge: a cancer diagnosis. Your donation will go to the Beyond the Rainbow Fund, which was founded by my sister, Anne-Marie.
The Beyond the Rainbow Fund (BTR) provides direct financial assistance to cancer patients at Exeter Hospital to help them pay for rent, mortgage, utilities, food, child care, transportation, wellness programs and more to try and help ease their burden while they fight this disease. Every dollar that is raised at the Cancer Walk & Trot goes directly to the Beyond the Rainbow Fund.
Check out what the BTR fund is all about and how it helped Carolyn and Dan Smith of Hampton: https://youtu.be/ryrSMLnKIKM
My sister's vision was to give back to her community and make a difference in the lives of local cancer patients. I have seen first hand what a difference your support can make! Every dollar, no matter the amount, makes an impact!
Our combined efforts will make a world of difference to those within our community who may be facing their greatest challenge: a cancer diagnosis.
Thank you for your support!
P.S. I welcome any of my family and friends to join me in running or walking as our community comes together for this event. You can learn more at https://unitedinwellness.org/Calendar/unitedinwellness-org-trickortreattrot.
