Childhood Cancer Foundation (CHOC)

Personal Message:

As a teacher, I am deeply committed to making a positive impact on the lives of young people, both inside and outside the classroom. The opportunity to race for the Childhood Cancer Foundation (CHOC) allows me to extend that commitment beyond my students to children who are facing life-threatening challenges. Cancer does not discriminate, and its impact on children and families is devastating. Through the comrades, I hope to raise awareness and support for the foundation. This cause is close to my heart, as I believe that every child deserves a fighting chance, and by coming together as a community, we can help bring hope and healing to those in need. As a teacher, I have seen firsthand the resilience of children, and I want to help empower them to keep fighting—just as I am running with determination and purpose to make a difference in their lives.
