This year, my Dad and I will be participating in The Prouty along with thousands of other community members who will bike, walk, row, golf and more to raise money for Dartmouth Cancer Center.  While my Grandmother suffered for years from lung cancer, she miraculously recovered and lived another 14 years cancer free.  However, not everyone is blessed that way, and we also know may who have not survived.  My Mom lost a best friend due to breast cancer.

We all know someone touched by cancer, but medical advances that include customizing care for patients based on multiple factors is helping create more survivors!

More than one third of all people will be diagnosed with cancer at some point in their lifetimes.* It’s a universal problem that touches everyone, including the most important people in our lives. That’s why I joined The Prouty. All of the funds I raise go toward cutting-edge cancer research and crucial patient support services at the Cancer Center.

Here are two ways that you can help support patients, doctors and caregivers in the fight against cancer: 

1. Join us! Register for The Prouty today.
2. Make a gift to my Prouty fundraiser and help me reach my goal. Click the ‘donate’ button to support my efforts in the 2024 Prouty.

All funds raised will help fund innovative researchers and clinicians who are dedicated to finding ways to prevent, diagnose, and treat cancer. Prouty funds also provide meaningful patient and family support services that are otherwise unfunded—such as support groups, massage, art therapy programs, transportation and grocery assistance, and more.

Thank you for your support!

Together, we are changing lives. Together, we will end cancer.
