There are more than 250,000 survivors who were diagnosed with breast cancer before age 40 living in the U.S. today. They are navigating an already permanently altered life after cancer now compounded by COVID-19.
I have made the exciting decision to participate in YSC Virtual Tour de Pink this year to raise funds to support them through the Young Survival Coalition (YSC).
I hope I can count on you to help me reach my fundraising goal. Any amount helps!
YSC is the largest nonprofit dedicated exclusively to young adults diagnosed with breast cancer age 40 and under and their co-survivor support networks. Through educational resources and programming, annual conferences, and local and online support networks, YSC ensures no young adult faces breast cancer alone. For more information, visit youngsurvival.org.
You can view YSC’s audited financials and annual reports online here: youngsurvival.org/who-we-are/financial-information
As I get moving for the survivors and thrivers, I plan to send out weekly updates as I continue to train for my 200 mile ride Oct 2-4 through northern, Illinois.
Thank you in advance for your support. I truly appreciate your generosity.

David - Keep up the incredible job raising money for the fight against cancer. Just this year a good friend of mine found out his daughter's breast cancer had metastasized. She's an incredible woman who has the fight to overcome this new challenge. She's a single mother of four awesome children as well as a Norman, OK Police Officer. Her badge number is 1623 so I am donating $116.23 in honor of her as well as to exceed John Schwaab's donation.
Be safe, coast when you can and remember I'm glad it's you riding 200 miles and not me! Thank You for being Jenny Bryan's "CANCER COP".
