Raised: $22,313

Goal: $25,000

Welcome to our team fundraising page!

Since our first Purple Stride event in 2011, Laura and I have collectively raised over $375,000 for the fight against pancreatic cancer. And, as you likely know if you’ve made it here, we raise money in memory of our amazing dad, who lost his 4-month battle with pancreatic cancer in 2008.  While time keeps passing, we continue to feel our dad's presence so powerfully in certain moments – and the Purple Stride event has always been one of those.  I hope you’ll join us in the fight against the disease that took him from us way too soon! All families facing this diagnosis deserve more time with those they love…
