Dear Family and Friends,
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. I am happy to say that I exceeded my goal of cycling 40 miles a week, and I am now at 220 miles with 5 days to go
I have been participating in Exeter Hospital's United in Wellness Virtual Cancer Walk & Trick or Treat Trot 5K as the community comes together to help support cancer treatment programs and services at Exeter Hospital's Center for Cancer Care.
Cancer is a disease that has unfortunately impacted the lives of many. In fact, most of us know someone who has heard the devastating words, “You have cancer." As cancer has touched the lives of too many friends and loved ones, I have made the commitment to raise funds to make a difference locally in the lives of those battling this disease.
Many years ago, I lost my Mom, Marlene, to cancer. In the same week as my Mom's passing, I lost my good friend Kathy too. So, I will be cycling on my Peloton for the next month in honor of both of them and many others who I know personally.
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 provides direct finacial support to our cancer patients at The Center for Cancer Care at Exeter Hospital. When a patient is in need, this fund provides a necessary relief for not only the patient but the family.
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 You can learn more at https://unitedinwellness.org/Calendar/unitedinwellness-org-trickortreattrot.
