As I was thinking as to why I would want to join a team and run the Boston Marathon, I knew that it was going to be for far more reasons than my own health and personal fitness goals. Being teamed up with such an important charity, I knew I had to do my part and show support for all those affected by cancer. At some point in our lives we will all come across someone we know fighting a terrible disease and one of the best ways we can show our support to them is by donating to such an important cause. Your donation to Dana Farber will take us one step closer to living in a world without cancer.
Every mile and each donation will make a powerful difference because it's not just a single act—it's part of a movement of an entire community of supporters including you and me. Everyone in this community is an important partner in The Dana-Farber Campaign, the Institute's ambitious, multi-year fundraising effort to prevent, treat, and defy cancer. The Dana-Farber Campaign will accelerate the Institute's strategic priorities by supporting revolutionary science, extraordinary care, and exceptional expertise.
Each donation during The Dana-Farber Campaign, no matter the size, adds up to provide patients with compassionate, personalized care and keeps Dana-Farber at the forefront of cancer medicine. When you support my efforts, you are a part of this transformative effort.
As a community, we have the power to create a more hopeful, cancer-free future, in Boston and around the world. I ask you to join me in my unwavering determination to this vital time in cancer care and research.
Thank you for your support!
