Welcome to my Seacoast Cancer 5k Walk/Run fundraising page!
On September 27th, I’ll be participating in a 5k road race benefiting Wentworth-Douglass Hospital. Proceeds from the Seacoast Cancer 5k benefit the Supportive and Wellness Services at Wentworth-Douglass Hospital’s Seacoast Cancer Center, offering patients and their families individualized guidance and support as they cope with cancer diagnoses and treatment.
Wentworth-Douglass Hospital is committed to significantly increasing the quality of life for those patients receiving cancer-directed treatment at the Seacoast Cancer Center.
For those of you who know, I lost my mother Joyce, sister-in-law Mary, sister Dayna and my aunt Elena all to Cancer! I will be walking in honor of these women who have made a huge impact on my life!! I think of these women EVERYDAY and their courage, strength and the sacrifice that they made battling this disease!
Please make a donation to help me reach my fundraising goal, every amount helps. To learn more about this event, please visit www.wdhospital.com/seacoastcancer5k.
Our Hospital stands on the foundation of Arioch Wentworth's legacy, but the Wentworth-Douglass Hospital of the early 21st century is vastly different from the small Hospital that opened its doors in 1906. Ongoing philanthropy is an essential predicate for progress and growth. With the fierce challenges of operating a successful contemporary healthcare organization the need for broad gift support is greater than ever.
Wentworth-Douglass Hospital's ability to earn and receive generous donations will make us stronger and more resilient than those lacking such a base of support. These gifts will spell the difference between mediocrity and excellence, between adequate facilities and exceptional facilities, between heavy reliance on distant institutions for specialized care and the availability of a full range of services close to our own homes and families. No other gifts will pay such vital, sustained, and universal dividends for the people of the Seacoast region. You and your family can make the difference in assuring this remarkable resource abides for our own time and for the generations to follow.
