Almost Here!

Wednesday 15th Apr

Good morning! Taking a quick break from paternity leave to highlight that the EMF Distance Challenge is right around the corner!


This year, we are Team MERRILL & Friends for Ben. Our efforts to raise funds for cancer research and log our greatest distances is dedicated with love and hope for our colleague Andrew Matthews and his family as they walk through the unimaginable—supporting their 1.5‑year‑old son, Ben, following his leukemia diagnosis. In this moment, we come together to surround Andrew, Ben, and their family with care and strength.

 

From May 12–19, 2026, Merrill employees and friends will log miles walked, run, and biked to show the Expect Miracles Foundation community just how far we are willing to go in the fight against cancer - please consider making a donation to the Expect Miracles Foundation as an investment in life‑saving cancer research and in the financial and emotional well‑being of those impacted by cancer.


Any and all donations are greatly appreciated - thanks, as always!
