Did you know that a backpack can be a lifesaving device?
Thanks to a recent research breakthrough, kids with B-cell ALL are receiving a new lifesaving treatment through a backpack. It has increased their survival rate to 96% and has allowed them to be home, attend school, play with friends, and get back to doing the things they love.
I am taking on the backpack challenge to stand in solidarity with them during their treatment and raise funds to Send Kids Cancer Packing! I'm committed to raising $2,500 to represent the 2,500 kids that will be diagnosed with b-cell ALL this year and to fund research to help all kids with cancer. Please consider donating – YOU pack the power to take childhood back from cancer!
Happy 2026!!!! This year I’m doing something different. I am still doing the head shave event in March, but wanted to also do the backpack challenge. That being said…I need help.
For this challenge my goal is $2,500. Because this challenge is different than my normal event fundraising we’re changing it up. I am asking for 25 companies, businesses and individuals to donate just $100. All donors will be thanked on Facebook (unless they wish to remain anonymous.) If the goal is reached, a poster will also be made with company logos to hang proudly in your support of pediatric cancer research. I am more than willing to work with donors in any way possible to also help spread the word on their business. Donate if you can or help spread the word. Feel free to message me with any questions or for more info.
