I'm raising money for the Dempsey Center!

Thank you for visiting my personal fundraising page for this year's Dempsey Challenge!

This is near to my heart with losing several my Daddy and Nana to cancer and many other loved ones fighting! I decided this year was going to by my 1st time participating in The Dempsey Challenge to help heal my heart and help others! This years challenge falls on the 19th anniversary of my Daddy’s death and I wanted to honor his memory in a different way his year and what better way than to run my 1st 5K.

The Dempsey Challenge is the premiere fundraising event for the Dempsey Center, a nonprofit founded by actor Patrick Dempsey. The Dempsey Center makes life better for people impacted by cancer by easing the side effects of cancer by improving their physical, emotional, social, familial, and functional well-being at any point in their cancer journey--all at no cost.

With a donation made to my page, you can help support thousands of cancer patients, survivors, care partners, and their loved ones. Gifts of any amount will provide no-cost support for years to come.

Thank you for your support!
