I Need Your Help

I am asking friends and family to sponsor my hike for Breast Cancer to raise money for a good cause while keeping me motivated along the way. The full trail will take me over 2,000 miles, 6 months and approximately 5 million footsteps. Knowing every mile I cover will mean money for a good cause will keep me pushing ahead.  Funds raised will go directly to Breast Cancer prevention and treatment for migrant workers and uninsured women living locally in the Tampa area. 

The cause:  Breast Cancer Outreach, Prevention and Treatment at St. Joseph's Women’s Hospital Breast Center. The dollars I raise will support Breast Cancer Outreach, screening and treatment assistance for uninsured women, with a focus on providing services to migrant women and others facing financial need in the local Tampa Bay community. Services supported will include Spanish language outreach, mammography and other diagnostic procedures for uninsured women. St. Joseph's Breast Cancer Outreach will be working largely through the parish nurses they have serving migrant and poor communities in the Tampa area.

Whether you sponsor me for a nickel a mile or a dollar a mile, we’ll know that my steps and your support will be helping others.

Please check out the attached sponsor sheet and email me with your sponsored amount per mile.  At the end of my hike, I’ll let everyone know how many miles I completed along with donation amounts and how to send checks to St. Joseph’s.

Thanks for following along with me. I’ll have a trail update soon.
