While I am not running the Boston Marathon this year, my commitment to raising funds for Expect Miracles Foundation continues.  I will once again be participating in the Distance Challenge, a global "get moving" challenge to support our SAMFund program for young adult cancer survivors and cancer research at Dana-Farber and Memorial-Sloan Kettering.

100% of every participant-raised dollar goes to EMF’s mission.  In my role as the Director of Programs, I have the privilege of leading our grant program that provides financial assistance to young adult cancer survivors as they rebuild their lives after treatment. This work is incredibly close to my heart, as three of my siblings—Molly, Mary, and John—were diagnosed with cancer as young adults.  The need is so great and there are few options for young survivors to turn to for support.   That's what makes this program so important.

I hope you'll consider making a gift to support our mission and to give hope to those facing an uphill climb.  As John would often remind us, where there is love, there is hope.  Let's keep showing up and sharing love!

With gratitude,

Jennie
