I am excited to share with you that I am an official member of Team Sharsheret for the 2024 Fort Lauderdale AIA Marathon, Half Marathon, & 5K. I have already started training for my race, and am inspired to undertake this rigorous challenge. I am participating in support of Sharsheret, a national not-for-profit organization supporting women and families at high risk and those facing breast and ovarian cancer at every stage-before, during, and after diagnosis.
It is particularly meaningful for me to race on behalf of Sharsheret because of my personal experience with breast cancer and being positive for the BRCA gene mutation, which makes me at higher risk for breast and other types of cancers. In addition, as of April I have a new role with Sharsheret as Florida Program Coordinator. I have been so impressed and inspired by this organization and all the life changing work it does on a daily basis.
As a member of this incredible Team, I have pledged to raise funds (which I hope to greatly exceed!) in support of Sharsheret's breast cancer and ovarian cancer programs and services. I am asking you to please support me in my health, athletic and fundraising efforts as I take on this challenge.
Please don’t forget to ask for corporate matching gifts as well! All contributions are tax-deductible. Thank you all so much, in advance, for your support!
Warm regards,
Sara
