Did you know one in five cancers is preventable with an active, healthy lifestyle? VCU Massey Cancer Center is working to save lives and find cures for cancer right here in Virginia and promote an active, healthy lifestyle for our community.

To support the cause, I am participating in the William & Mary Massey 5k to raise funds and awareness for Massey, the official charitable partner of the 5k. My 5k will have special meaning as a way to honor those I love who are battling – or have battled cancer.

The Massey 5k means a lot to me because I have had multiple family members pass away from cancer, including my grandmother. Even though she passed right before I was born, her impact on our family stretches through generations, and helping raise money with Massey is my own special way of honoring her legacy.

When you make a donation towards my fundraising goal, you join our team effort to support cancer research, honor those who have battled cancer and unite our community towards a cure. Will your dollar be the one that cures cancer? I hope you’ll help me put cancer on the run!
