I’m running the 5K in the GWB Challenge to benefit the American Cancer Society — and I’d love your support.

Cancer has affected so many people I know and love. For nearly 25 years, Ari was my friend, neighbor, and coworker. Whether assisting in synagogue, sharing a laugh in the neighborhood, collaborating at work, or simply being part of each other’s everyday lives, he made the world brighter for everyone around him. Losing him to cancer was heartbreaking.

Taking part in this event gives me the chance to make a difference and honor those touched by cancer by raising funds for groundbreaking research and services for people dealing with cancer. I’m also participating to inspire hope for those facing the disease and to help end cancer as we know it.

Cancer will be diagnosed in about 1 in 3 people in the United States during their lifetime. Funds raised also support cancer patient programs and groundbreaking research that can help save lives. This event also celebrates over 15.5 million cancer survivors nationwide.

That’s why I’d love your support. Will you join me in the fight? And if you can’t, would you be so kind as to make a donation?
