Welcome to our team fundraising page!

Pancreatic cancer has the lowest survival rate of all major cancers, at just 10%. This deadly disease has stolen our best and our brightest, but it can’t take away our determination. 

 

We are Striding!!!! Our Mother & Nanny Sarah A. Morris passed away June 11, 2014 from pancreatic cancer at the ripe age of 63.  She was deemed Stage IV at the time of her diagnosis and would not benefit from any treatment. We hurt…she would not see her grandchildren get married, her first great grandson grow up or even meet her additional 4 great-grandchildren. It is still hard. We carry everything she taught us and spread her spirit and love with all we encounter. 
To honor her legacy, we joined the fight against pancreatic cancer. Our prayer is that with funding for research, education and treatment others will have the opportunity for early detection, increased treatment options and support.  We invite all of our loves ones to participate in our ultimate goal….Increase the survival rate! 

Every dollar that you donate ensures that the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network can continue working to create better outcomes for pancreatic cancer patients and their families. By donating to our team, you are supporting vital efforts to double pancreatic cancer survival by 2020. 

Purple ribbons aren’t enough. Please join us in the fight today. 

Let’s Go Team Brown Betty!
