Welcome to Our Team Hoboken Abuelo Fundraising Page!

In honor of our Dad's memory, we have decided to participate in this event down at the South Street Seaport, Pier 17, NYC on Saturday, April 27 at 9 AM.  My Dad was a strong, healthy, active man with no prior family history of cancer.  He was even taking care of my mom through her cancer journey.  We found out when he died that he was loaded with cancer and that the next step would have been hospice care for him.  Scary how you could be fine one minute and gone the next.  It is a helpless feeling to lose your beloved parent this way so we decided to find a cause and take action.

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! 

We’ve set an ambitious fundraising goal – because the more money we raise, the bigger impact we make – and would be profoundly grateful for your donation. A gift of any size will help patients and families facing a pancreatic cancer diagnosis.  

Want to help in a bigger way? We’d love for you to join our team! Just click the Register button at the top of this page to get started. Register for free, raise $50 and you’ll receive an official PanCAN PurpleStride 2024 T-shirt!

Let’s show everyone impacted by pancreatic cancer that we’re fighting for them – thank you for your support!
