My Sigma Chi Pledge Page
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page to help me and my pledge class raise money for women’s cancer research, treatment, and wellness at Huntsman Cancer Institute. I am excited to join in thousands of Sigma Chi’s across North America, all uniting together to be “The Generation to End Cancer,” by supporting the life-saving work of researchers at Huntsman Cancer Institute.
In 2015, my grandpa lost his battle to multiple myeloma after 6 years. This was my first real experience of what cancer can do to not only the people who are diagnosed with it, but also the people around them. Seeing how my grandpa's death affected my mom really impacted my life and showed me how important family is.
Around the same time my grandpa passed, my grandma on my dad's side was diagnosed with endometrial cancer. Later in 2021, she found out the cancer had spread to her lungs and in 2024, the cancer had spread to her blood causing her to pass away in July of 2024.
In 2018, my mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. Thanks to an early diagnosis and amazing doctors, my mom was able to undergo a surgery that ultimately rendered her cancer free.
Cancer has had a huge impact on me and my family and has inspired me to want to help raise money towards cancer research. Please consider helping me reach my goal by donating to this page – 100% of every donation is being used to fund cancer research at Huntsman Cancer Institute. Because of you others can continue to have hope in their fight against cancer.
About Huntsman Cancer Institute
Huntsman Cancer Institute (HCI) is a leader in the study of cancer genetics and its researchers have discovered more inherited cancer genes than any other cancer center in the world. Genes responsible for breast and ovarian cancer, colon cancer, head and neck cancer, and melanoma were identified here.
All cancer treatments used today began with research. Learn more about research taking place at HCI by visiting huntsmancancer.org.
