Involvement with Ulman Foundation
I have been a supporter of this amazing organization for young adults facing cancer for the past 20 years. I was asked a few years ago to serve on the board of this non-profit organization. My experience with the Ulman Foundation and their team has been a great experience and one of my passions in life.
Why I’m Volunteering as a Support Driver for the Key to Keys 2019
Key to Keys is a one week experience where 35 individuals come together and bike from Baltimore, MD to Key West, FL. Volunteering as a Support Driver for the upcoming Ulman Foundation Key to Keys bike ride is a meaningful way to support young cancer patients and their families. With the financial support of family and friends, we can make a significant difference by raising awareness and funds to help young adult cancer patients and survivors. This Foundation provides patient navigators, support groups, special assistance, scholarships and free housing/meals at the Ulman House. We will be visiting patients at cancer centers on our adventure south to Key West. This initiative is a great opportunity for “service to others“.
Why Your Support is Requested
As a Support Driver, I am soliciting sponsorships from family and friends like you. All of us have been touched by many loved one’s fight with cancer. Hopefully, you will support this very worthy cause by making a donation in my name to the Ulman Foundation’s Key to Keys 2019. Thank you in advance for your consideration!

Fundraising Goal: $5,000
CHALLENGE:
Over 72,000 young adults are diagnosed with cancer every year. Young adults (ages 15-39) face a variety of unique challenges with a cancer diagnosis including fertility preservation, social isolation, lack of insurance, delayed diagnosis, and more.
SOLUTION:
Ulman Foundation changes lives by creating a community of support for young adults, and their loved ones, impacted by cancer. With your support, Ulman is able to provide free support services and resources for the young adult cancer community including:
Cancer to 5K - a 12-week training program designed to introduce or reintroduce cancer survivors to physical activity.
Patient Navigation - a free program (onsite at cancer centers and remotely through our office) that ensures no young adult ever faces cancer alone. We provide one-on-one support & 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.
Ulman House - This year Ulman will open a “home away from home” to provide free housing for young adult cancer patients, and their caregivers, in East Baltimore.
Your donation will help make these programs and our mission possible!
