Event Name: Weston Against Cancer
I've created this page to raise funds for research at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK), and I hope you'll consider joining the cause by making a donation.
Many of the most important breakthroughs in cancer research and treatment have been made at MSK, and none of that progress would have been possible without support from people like you and me.
In fact, much of the most promising new research can't even begin without donations from individuals. In most cases, it's only after real potential has been demonstrated by early studies — studies our support has funded — that government funding for this work becomes possible.
My dad’s dad died of Pancreatic cancer three years before I was born. I never got to meet him. Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest cancers as it grows asymptomatically. By the time my grandfather went in for testing, the cancer had spread so far and wide that he had few options to fight it. There was no cough. There was no noticeable lump. There were no new blemishes on his skin. The cancer just quietly grew. I would like to raise money for research ways for earlier detection.
Any donation helps, thank you so much!
