Hey everyone,
this summer I will join a group of selfless youth and we will cycle our way all the way from Baltimore, MD to San Francisco, CA. It will take us about 70 days of non-stop cycling and we would cover 50-100 miles a day.
Why am I doing this? I have had friends and family that were affected by cancer and I saw how painful it can be. I also saw how strong the effected individuals were. Seeing them fighting cancer so courageously motivated me to contribute to this cause. Help me raise $4500.00 by the end of May and let's make a difference together. Ulman Cancer fund for Young Adults helps change lives by creating a community of support for young adults, and their loved ones, impacted by cancer. Please feel free to contact me if you would like to donate in cash (I can come to you), check, or Venmo. Sending a lot of love to you for being a generous soul.

2019 marks the 18th year of the 4K for Cancer sending young adults on journeys across the country in an effort to inspire hope and unite communities in the fight against cancer. The 4K for Cancer is a program of the Ulman Foundation (Ulman). Interested in joining the fight? Apply to be a rider or runner a at www.4kforcancer.org!
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!
