DarDar's Half Pints

Hey, there!

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

Mom was diagnosed with cancer in mid-September 2022. It was about another month before the diagnosis was confirmed Stage IV pancreatic cancer. And then she was gone in less than six weeks. Pancreatic cancer is one of the worst cancers because it's usually not discovered until it's too late for any treatment to have an impact. I can tell you this has been the most devastating experience and I'm sure if mom were still here, she would say the same. So, I want to do what I can to support other people and maybe save someone from going through what mom did.

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.  

PanCAN PurpleStride is for everyone, and we’d love for you to join our team! Just click the Register button at the top of this page and follow a few easy steps to get set up. And anyone who registers and raises $50 will receive an official PanCAN PurpleStride 2023 T-shirt!

Can we count on you to get us one step closer to the day where pancreatic cancer patients don’t just survive but thrive?

Patients and families need us now more than ever.

Thank you for your support!
