Welcome to my Huntsman Heroes Fundraising Page!
I've joined the Huntsman Heroes team for the 2025 Ogden Marathon to raise money for cancer research at Huntsman Cancer Institute. My sister Sara Hernandez and I created team Lourdes and Jorge Hernandez in honor of our parents. My dad passed away last year from Lung Cancer after a 6 1/2 year battle. 5 1/2 week later my Mother was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. She has now had mastectomy surgery, chemotherapy, radiation and is now on a cancer medication and is still fighting. Joining this cause just made sense given what cancer has meant to our family.
Our Teams goal is to raise $ 2000 and my personal goal is to raise $1000 of that total. I would love for you to join this cause with me to support Fighting Cancer. Remember you don't have to give big for it to matter.
Please look at the Lourdes and Jorge Hernandez Team page for more about our journey and motivation.
Thank you Everyone
