Welcome to my PanCAN PurpleStride Personal Fundraising Page!

Over 66,000 Americans are expected to be diagnosed with pancreatic cancer this year. My father-in-law Mark lost his battle with pancreatic cancer last year. 

It is one of the hardest cancers to detect and treat, which is why the work that PanCAN does is so vital.

I want to improve and extend the lives of pancreatic cancer patients – and I need your help to do it.

I’m taking steps at the ultimate walk to end pancreatic cancer, PanCAN PurpleStride, on Saturday, April 26, 2025 in NYC.

PurpleStride participants raise money to fund vital research that can bring new treatment options to patients; free, personalized, one-to-one support through PanCAN Patient Services; and more.

Here’s where you come in—I’ve set an ambitious fundraising goal and need your donations! A gift of any size will help patients and families facing a pancreatic cancer diagnosis.

Want to help in a bigger way? Join me by registering for PurpleStride! 

It is completely free to register and join my team. Those who raise $50 will receive an official PanCAN PurpleStride 2025 T-shirt.

I am hopeful that with improvements in early detection, specific pancreatic cancer treatments, and even by simply spreading awareness of pancreatic cancer, we can help more families who have been impacted.

To all of the patients, families and survivors who have been seen the firsthand effects of pancreatic cancer—I see you and I'm here for you.

I’m grateful for your support.
