When you come from a large family like ours, the question isn’t If, it’s When…
When will someone we know be diagnosed with cancer?
Who will it be—a family member, friend, neighbor, or even us?
What type of cancer will it be and what will be the Outcome?
It’s hard to believe that another year has passed and it’s time to start preparing for another Badger Challenge. It’s also a time to think about our friends and families that have been impacted by cancer since our last challenge. Some may have just received their diagnosis and are currently undergoing treatment, while others have sadly lost their battle. This is why we accept this challenge each year because we never know who that next person may be.
We may not have any control over If, or Who, or When, but we can definitely help contribute toward the positive Outcomes by once again participating in The Badger Challenge on Sunday, September 22nd, a fundraising event for the UW Department of Human Oncology and the Carbone Cancer Center. We’re running, walking and biking to power the brightest cancer minds, ideas and technologies at UW. We all have been affected by cancer in some way and more needs to be done to combat this terrible disease.
In southern Wisconsin, we are so fortunate to have this world-class institution right in our own backyard. Please consider donating to our team, Team Triple E + Steve. Help us raise the funds so they can continue their state-of-the-art research and provide successful treatments for whoever it is that will one day face their own cancer diagnosis.
To learn more about The Badger Challenge (and to sign up yourself!) please go to BadgerChallenge.org.
Thank you so much for your generosity! Together we can help write the story that ends cancer!
Team Triple E + Steve!
