I am excited to be part of the 2019 K2K team that will be riding in late April and early May from Baltimore to Key West. Last year I found out soon after I committed to the Key 2 Keys bike ride that my renal cancer had returned. That 8 days this last April was an incredible experience that began with strangers who became family. However, when I finished the K2K last April I felt I had unfinished business and wanted to stay involved with the Ulman Foundation and that is why I am riding again this year. Also, this year I will be riding as a survivor as my cancer has been in remission since last May. I rode last year primarily to honor my brother Scott and was honored to do so. Also, in the last 6 months I have met many of the young adults the Ulman Foundation is supporting as well as have seen and can better relate to their goals. I couldn't have done the K2K bike ride last year without your support and again am asking for your support again as I try to raise $4500. Please feel free to share this with family and friends who have been affected by cancer. Your money is going to a wonderful organization and staff that will spend your money wisely. "Cancer changes lives so do we!"
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!
