This summer I will be competing in my first triathalon, Iron Girl 2014. Joining Team FIght will be the most impacting and amazing experience of my life. I will be dedicating my journey to my grandmother, Shirley, who battled breast cancer  throughout her life.  Her love and faith helped her battle this incurable disease, and made her the strong woman she was. Although she is no longer with us today, I know she will be my guardian angel throughout this entire experience. My goal is to raise $800 by August 17, 2014, every bit of donation and support will help cancer research, and help to fund someone who is fighting this deadly disease. Thank you all for you prayers and support along the way. xoxo

Love,

The Ulman Cancer Fund for Young Adults changes lives by creating a community of support for young adults, and their loved ones, as they fight cancer and embrace survivorship. 

With your support, The Ulman Cancer Fund is able to provide multiple support services and resources for the young adult cancer community, including: 

• Cancer to 5K - A free, progressive, 12-week run/walk program designed to reintroduce cancer survivors to physical activity.

• Helping Others Fight - A volunteer program that provides basic services – such as transportation to and from treatment, yard work, home repairs, delivery of chemo care bags – to local cancer patients and their families so they can focus their energy on their battle with cancer and their well-being.

• Patient Navigation - A free program - onsite at cancer centers and remote - that ensures no young adult ever faces cancer alone.  We provide one-on-one personal support and resources to young adults and their families to help them manage the cancer experience and long-term cancer survival. 

• Scholarships - A financial assistance program to help young adults continue their education after being affected by cancer through their own diagnosis or the diagnosis of a loved one.


Thank you for making these programs and our mission possible.
