Thank you for visiting my fundraising page! Ever since I started working as a Nurse Practitioner at the Marlene and Stewart Greenebaum Cancer Center at the University of Maryland Medical Center I have been touched by so many of our patients and their personal battles. Many of our patients are young and full of dreams and aspirations, and watching them literally fight for their lives after receiving a heartbreaking diagnosis has been one of the most inspiring parts of my job. It is for this reason that I made the decision to take part in the Key to Keys experience. By participating in this event not only will I get to hear the stories and experiences of young patients with cancer, their family members, and their friends, but I will also be helping raise funds for an organization that helps them navigate life with cancer. From providing support groups to assisting the patients with financial issues, the Ulman Fund supports young cancer patients with various aspects of life while they battle this terrible disease. Please help me reach my goal of raising $4500 to give back to an organization that has given so much to those in need during the hardest times of their lives. Any donation is greatly appreciated!
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!
