For many years, the rhythm of my life was defined by the sound of footsteps that weren't mine. Growing up with a father battling cancer and other illnesses, I witnessed firsthand the profound impact disease has on families. His limitations fueled a silent promise within me. While he couldn't run, I would.
For over 800 days, I laced up my shoes, running not just for myself, but for him, carrying his dreams on my shoulders. Each step was a testament to his strength, a silent vow to never take my own health for granted.
Sadly, my father passed away in July 2020, leaving a void that feels insurmountable most days. Cancer became more than just a childhood experience; it became a responsibility. Witnessing the challenges faced by families navigating this disease left an indelible mark on my life.
That's why I'm running the marathon for Sharsheret, a remarkable organization dedicated to supporting Jewish women and families facing breast and ovarian cancer. Sharsheret's mission resonates deeply with me, providing not just medical resources but also the emotional and communal support so crucial during difficult times.
This marathon isn't just about crossing the finish line; it's about honoring my father's memory, supporting countless families like mine, and turning my experiences into a force for good.
By contributing to my fundraising efforts, you become part of Sharsheret's vital work. Your donation, no matter the size, empowers Sharsheret to offer crucial support, education, and resources to those facing cancer's challenges.
Together, we can turn this run into something bigger than ourselves, creating a future where families affected by cancer find strength, hope, and a community that truly cares.
Please consider donating to my campaign and join me in honoring my father and supporting the incredible work of Sharsheret.
Together, we can make a difference.
