My Personal Fundraising Page

I’m running this race for my Aunt Michele, who courageously fought breast cancer and continues to inspire me every day. During her journey, I gave her a small plush frog named Nigel, and she found comfort in having him by her side, often sending me photos of Nigel in different settings to bring joy during tough times. Now, Nigel and I are carrying her spirit forward as we race to raise funds for cancer research. This cause is especially close to my heart because the race takes place on October 4th, which would have been Michele’s birthday. I’m proud to have my Uncle Michael (Michele’s husband) on my team as we honor her memory together. We’re racing for hope, healing, and to support the vital work being done in cancer research. Every step we take is for Michele—and for everyone touched by breast cancer. ?

I’m raising money for cancer research in memory of my Aunt Michele. She was a source of strength and inspiration, and this race is dedicated to honoring her life and the countless others impacted by breast cancer

I’m thrilled to be participating in the 2025 MK5K, a fundraiser supporting the Mary Kay Ash Foundation!

This year, I’m running in memory of my Aunt Michele, who courageously battled breast cancer. The race takes place on October 4th, which is especially meaningful because it’s also her birthday.

During her journey, I gave Michele a little frog who she named Nigel, who brought her comfort and joy. Now, Nigel is joining me on this race, continuing her story of hope. I’m also proud to have my Uncle Michael (Michele’s husband) on my team, making this effort even more meaningful.

I’m passionate about this cause and need your help! Every donation—big or small—helps me reach my fundraising goal and directly impacts the fight against cancer.

Here’s how you can help:

  • Donate: Contribute whatever you can. No amount is too small!

  • Spread the Word: Share my fundraising page with your friends, family, and social networks. Together, we can make a greater impact!

Thank you for standing by me in this effort. Your support means the world to me—and helps carry Michele’s spirit forward. ?
