Dear Friends and Family,

I am so so so excited to share with you that I am an official member of Team Sharsheret for the 2022 United Airlines NYC Half.

I have already begun to train for my race, and am inspired to undertake this rigorous challenge as I am doing it 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 the support they have provided for friends who were touched by breast cancer and ovarian cancer. Sharsheret was the only organization that provided the vital culturally relevant support they were desperately seeking. As I continually hear about the wonderful resource Sharsheret is for many friends and thousands of others locally and nationally, I wonder how I could do more. How can I make a difference? By taking on this personal challenge and joining with other member of Team Sharsheret I have found my answer.

As a member of this incredible Team, I have pledged to raise funds (which I hope to exceed!! in support of Sharsheret's cancer and ovarian programs and services. I am asking you to please support me in my athletic and fundraising efforts as I take on this challenge, ask for corporate matching for your gift too! All contributions are tax-deductible.

Thank you all so much, in advance, for your support!
