Childhood Cancer Foundation (CHOC)

Personal Message:

In 2022, my son was diagnosed with B Leukemia, a life-altering experience that opened my eyes to the vital role that charitable organizations, especially the CHOC Foundation, play in supporting children and families affected by cancer. Throughout this challenging journey, I've seen firsthand how the CHOC Foundation has made a difference in my son's life and in the lives of many other children battling cancer. Inspired by their work, I made a promise to myself to give back and help raise funds for this important cause, no matter how small the contribution. As part of my commitment, I will be participating in the Comrades Marathon in 2025 to help raise funds for the CHOC Foundation, my 11th race, but this time, driven by a deep desire to make a real difference. I invite others to join me in supporting this cause and contributing to the foundation's efforts to continue assisting those in need.
