This year, I will be participating in The Prouty along with my family members who will bike, walk, row, golf and more to raise money for the Dartmouth Cancer Center in honor of my father-in-law, Ken Robertson.

Ken faced his battle with cancer with strength and grace, inspiring everyone who knew him. My 3 children, who were lucky enough to see him almost daily until the day he died, will remember his witty humor - even when he wasn't feeling well. He was such a people person bringing smiles and laughs to us all. While grieving his loss, this event channels that grief into something meaningful. 

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 with my family. All of the funds we 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 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 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.
