Why I box

"You beat cancer by how you live, why you live and in the manner in which you live. So live. Live! Fight like hell. And when you get too tired to fight, then lay down and rest and let somebody else fight for you.”- Stuart Scott 

I've been lucky enough that cancer hasn't deeply impacted my life so far. Without a doubt, it has taken and affected some beloved family members. It has come across my social media, affecting friends-of-friends and people I vaguely know. Yet, I have been immensely fortunate that the Big C hasn't truly been in my day-to-day life. 

Unfortunately, that's not sustainable. Cancer is a devastatingly inevitable disease which many families will have to contend with in some capacity. In September, I'm fighting to help KO cancer before it descends into my inner circle. I'm fighting to help KO cancer before it shatters the worlds of individuals unknown to me. While I cannot imagine the difficulty of the fight that those with cancer and their loved ones face, I can fight in the squared circle to help spread awareness, raise money, and enter a community where knocking out cancer is the ultimate goal. 

 

Thank you for helping me raise my fundraising goal and for helping fight for those before us, around us, and ahead of us. I hope to see you on fight night at The Anthem in Washington DC, on Thursday, September 19th!

 

Please let me know if you would like any additional information on how your donation will be used to fight cancer.

Thank you all so much!
