SUPPORT BREAST CANCER AWARENESS
CLIMB TO OCTOBER PROJECT
Join me in supporting a great cause in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness! We all need to pause for a climb sometimes in our fast-paced lives. Throughout May-October 2025, I will do just that and attempt to walk/climb the distance of the Appalachian trail, encompassing roughly 2,200 miles extending between Springer Mountain in Georgia and Mount Katahdin in Maine. A portion of the sponsorship funds I raise will be donated to Fish River Rural Health’s “The Journey”- Cancer Support Group. Cancer has impacted me personally, seeing family and close friends go through the difficult journey has been a humbling experience. I want to raise awareness by doing what I love the most, by climbing mountains and re-connecting with nature!
To donate to the cause click on the donation page above! Donations can also be made through Venmo and cash/check.

Firmly etched within their service communities, they’re known for their commitment to education, access to care, and its well-established powerful social support network the breast cancer support group, called The Journey.
The inception of The Journey was May 21, 2007, after patient requests to have a more focused group for women journeying through breast cancer, survivors, and co-survivors. The support group provides participants with breast related education, emotional support, and serves as a powerful source of healing. It is through the voices of patients/residents of the communities that the success stories of FRRH’s committed work are told.
Two books, Valley of Courage, and Valley of Hope, that are reflections by breast cancer survivors, their families, and friends. These books are available for purchase at Amazon.com
