Welcome to Our PanCAN PurpleStride Team Fundraising Page!

Hey, there!

My team and I are taking steps to end pancreatic cancer at PanCAN PurpleStride on Saturday, April 29, 2023.

We want to make the biggest impact on the lives of pancreatic cancer patients – and we need your help to do that!

PanCAN PurpleStride is the number one way PanCAN raises money to fund vital research that can bring new treatment options to patients, and gives them free, personalized one-to-one support through PanCAN Patient Services.

Here’s where you come in! We’ve set an ambitious fundraising goal – because the more money we raise, the bigger impact we make – and would appreciate a gift of any size to help us get there. 

Hello to everyone

As some of you may know my mother was diagnosed with Stage 4 pancreatic cancer about a year ago. The news was devastating and broke many hearts, but for those of you who are lucky enough to know my mother and the attitude she has towards life, she picked up all of our pieces and put them back together. Her being the warrior that she is didn’t give up and hasn’t gave up until this day. She still radiates that beautiful smile and wonderful energy that is embedded in all her being. Like all families that have to unfortunately deal with this struggle we have our good days and our bad. No matter what kind of day we’re having my mother never gives in, she’s such a fighter that sometimes she gives us the pleasure of making us forget. But then the reality of what we’re facing comes crawling back in, which is why we have decided to join this wonderful cause in the name of my mom to help research and fund to a better outcome for this horrible disease. My goal is not to get big donations but instead many many small donations to show my mother how many lives she has impacted that are willing to donate to this cause in her name. My mom is probably the most selfless person I have ever met and I know there’s countless people that can attest to that. With that being said thank you all for reading , and for helping my mom know that her story could make even a small difference in the lives of others. Thank you
