Kayaking for Cancer on Saturday, July 9th!
Kayaking for Cancer on Saturday, July 9th!
On July 9th, I will be participating in the 41st Annual Prouty with thousands of my fellow community members by organizing my second 13.5-mile paddling event down the Connecticut River from Westmoreland, NH to Brattleboro, VT. As a breast cancer survivor, participating in The Prouty to help raise awareness and critical funds for cancer research and patient care is particularly important to me. Last year, 38 paddlers spent an incredible day on the beautiful Connecticut River together raising more than $33,000 for The Prouty – join me on July 9th and help us break last year’s record!
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. *Source: National Cancer Institute
Here are two ways that you can help support patients, doctors and caregivers in the fight against cancer:
- Join me! Register today for the 41st Annual Prouty. You can participate in your own event or email me at jackie.caserta@gmail.com if you'd like details on joining me on my Connecticut River Paddling (kayak, canoe or paddleboard!) Adventure
- Make a donation to my Prouty fundraiser by clicking the "Donate" button and support my efforts in the 2022 Prouty.
Make your dollars go farther! May Prouty Fundraising Challenge: For every 5 donations of any amount received by May 31, each participant will receive a $250 matching credit!
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.
