Story

Join me in the fight against gynecologic cancers - diseases that will strike 1 in 25 women during their lifetime. I'm participating in the Johns Hopkins Below the Belt Stride and Thrive 5K because the numbers demand action: over 113,000 women are diagnosed with gynecologic cancers annually in the U.S., yet these diseases remain underfunded compared to other major cancers.

Every dollar you donate directly supports the Johns Hopkins Kelly Gynecologic Oncology Service, where groundbreaking research is already changing outcomes. Your contribution funds innovative treatments, early detection research and comprehensive care that's improving survival rates for women facing gynecologic cancers.

I'm not just participanting for fitness - I'm moving toward a future where women have better treatment options and hope. When you support my fundraising page, you're investing in research that could lead to life-saving breakthroughs and ensuring women have access to the specialized, expert care that makes all the difference.

Your donation, no matter the size, creates real impact. Together, we can change the trajectory of gynecologic cancer care and give every woman the fighting chance she deserves.

Please consider making a contribution to my fundraising page today - let's stride toward hope!
