Dear Friends and Family,

We are excited to share that we are official members of Team Sharsheret for the 2027 Life Time Miami Marathon and Half Marathon! We've already started training and are inspired to take on this meaningful challenge together.

We are participating in support of Sharsheret, a national nonprofit organization that supports women and families at high risk for, or facing, breast and ovarian cancer at every stage—before, during, and after diagnosis.

Supporting Sharsheret is especially meaningful to us because of the incredible impact the organization has had on Jessica, Robyn, and our family over the past few years. After Jessica learned she carries the BRCA2 gene mutation and underwent preventative surgeries to significantly reduce her cancer risk, and as Robyn navigated her own breast cancer journey, Sharsheret became an invaluable source of support, guidance, and community. They provided compassionate, culturally relevant resources that made an incredibly difficult time feel a little less overwhelming.

Now, we want to help ensure that other individuals and families facing similar journeys have access to that same support. As members of Team Sharsheret, we've committed to raising funds (and hope to far exceed our goal!) to support the organization's breast and ovarian cancer programs and services. We would be so grateful for your support as we take on both this athletic challenge and our fundraising efforts.

If you're able to contribute, every donation—no matter the size—makes a difference. And if your employer offers a corporate matching gift program, please consider submitting your donation for a match to double your impact. All contributions are tax-deductible.

Thank you so much, in advance, for your generosity, encouragement, and support. It truly means the world to us!

Jessica & Josh
