Why I want to freeze in Lake Zurich on March 7th

Being crazy for a good cause isn't crazy at all! Dealing with cancer is scary and hard, and anything we can do to make it less stressful is worth it. Yes, I might jump into a freezing lake for the fun of it, but that's not the point. I want to help! one last thing: POTATOES (they're amazing and also a reference from Lord Of The Rings)

Tell your story here! Your supporters will want to know about you and why you’re fundraising for this cause.

Each one of us have been affected by cancer in one way or another.  Whether it is you who has battled or is battling cancer,  or that of a dear family member or close friend or even a charished pet.  We may not be able to stop the disease at this point but we can try to help those with this awful disease.  This is why I have decided to join the 7th Annual Purple Plunge.  This great charity is raising money to help those affected by cancer.  Please help me by making a donation, joining my team or coming out to the great event on March 7, 2020.
