Greetings friends and family, 

As most of you know, '22 was not easy for our family. My Dad faced the big “C” and fought bravely to come out victorious—many families aren't as fortunate. This hard truth got me thinking about how I can do my part to help.

I've always been an avid runner, but never for a charitable organization. Moving forward, every race I run will be dedicated to a cancer foundation. Sitting with my dad during his chemo treatments showed me that, no matter what part of the body it’s targeted, cancer in all its forms is devastating. This year, I’ll be running in the 2023 Marine Corps Marathon to raise funds for GO2 for Lung Cancer.

I’m writing to ask for a donation to help me meet my fundraising goal for this marathon. Your contribution will drive GO2 for Lung Cancer's mission to provide assistance to patients and families, improve health policies, lead advocacy efforts, and conduct research to ultimately find a cure. 

Thank you in advance for your support! No amount is too small, and every bit adds up to make a difference. Please forward this to anyone who may want to help.
