The 4th Time's a Charm
Hey everyone!
I'm back for the 4th of 5 years with Team in Training. By participating as a member of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) TNT, I am raising funds to help find cures and ensure access to treatments for blood cancer patients.
I got involved with Team in Training in 2010 when a friend lost her husband to lymphoma. Since then, we've lost two honored teammates and another friend's husband to blood cancer. Every time that happens, I get a little bit angrier. I'm increasingly committed to finding ways to prevent and treat cancers of all kinds.
Your donation will help fund treatments that save lives every day; like immnuotherapies that use a person’s own immune system to kill cancer. Every donation gets us a little closer to a new therapy, or a better understanding of what causes these cancers in the first place.
Please make a donation in support of my efforts with Team In Training and help get us all closer to a world without blood cancers. Many thanks to the friends, family and anonymous donors who have already contributed to my fundraising!
Thank you!
