This year, I will be participating in The Prouty along with my beautiful niece Nicole in honor of her Mom Deb. Thousands of community members will bike, walk, row, golf and more to raise money for Dartmouth Cancer Center.

I will also be participating in honor of dear friends and family members who have battled and in some cases lost their lives to cancer. My best best best friend Mary Jane, my cousin Susan, and my son’s father Rick all of whom lost their lives WAY too young. 

When you or a loved one is ill or have a medical crisis, these amazing organizations and people who work for them come to your rescue. Smart, skilled, talented, trained, and compassionate. Thank God for them. 

I know the Dartmouth Center was there for my nieces and their Mom when they needed them most. 

This is why I’m walking.

Please donate. We need to support these critically important organizations, people, and causes. Research and treatment. Care and compassion. 

All of the funds I raise go toward cutting-edge cancer research and crucial patient support services at the Cancer Center. Hope starts here!

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

1. Join me! 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 2025 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!

Hope starts here. Hope starts with you.
