Donna Polisi Cleary

I'm raising money in support of the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network by participating in PurpleStride.

My family is committed to this cause as mom and dad both passed from it. We have been doing the Purple Stride Walk to help raise funds to end this disease or at least increase the survival rates. We've been doing the walk since 2011. It was announced by Pancan that survival rates past five years are now at 13% which is better but still pretty dismal statistcs. After diagnois, by dad lost his life in 3 months. My mom had the whipple surgery and made it almost 4 years. Pancreatic cancer is still known as the silent killer as there are no symptoms until it's pretty fargone. We need more research with results!

I am so grateful for my friends and family who have joined me in this walk. It's important to spread awareness and funds to make progress in research to help furthr prevention methods and survival rates. Our family won't stop walking to help make a difference! 

Please join us again by walking or making a donation. Any amount is greatly appreciated. THANK YOU!

With all my love and appreciation, Donna
