I am running with Team Lurie Children's - A Little Lighter to support children and families affected by childhood cancer and blood disorders. I am dedicating my race to advancing research, supporting families, and helping to provide access for more kids. As a pediatric hematology/oncology nurse, I've seen firsthand how much these children and families are asked to carry - not only medically and emotionally, but also financially. A Little Lighter is a nonprofit that exists to take some of that weight off their shoulders and to make their journey a little lighter. If you're able, I'd love for you to consider making a donation to support my run. 

Here’s how your donations can make a difference:

$100 is enough to help make a child’s hospital stay a more positive experience with activities, supplies and toys.

$250 can provide patients with the support they need to thrive after lengthy hospital stays.

$500 supports clinical trials to help discover new or more effective treatment options.

$1000 means we can train the next generation of specialists.

All donations are tax-deductible and will be acknowledged by Lurie Children’s Foundation.

On behalf of the patients and families of Lurie Children’s, thank you for your support!
