Snowdrop Foundation

Please support me as I raise funds for children’s cancer programs and cancer research via the Snowdrop Foundation -  THANKS!!!!!

This December 30 through January 1, I will be running 100 miles as part of the Snowdrop Ultra 55 hr Race to raise money for the Snowdrop Foundation. 

This foundation is run by a family who were touched by struggles of kids battling cancer at so young an age.  Pediatric cancer affected our family.  I lost a dear nephew, Rusty Anderson, 15 years ago to pediatric bone cancer when he was just 15.  I will be running in his memory.

The Snowdrop Foundation raises awareness and funding for continued research to cure childhood cancer and provides scholarships for college bound pediatric cancer patients and childhood cancer survivors.

The snowdrop is the first flower to bloom in the spring, even blooming when snow is still on the ground. It is a hearty flower, nearly indestructible by nature. Childhood cancer patients demonstrate indestructible attitudes and spirit while battling the life threatening illness of childhood cancer.

The snowdrop flower symbolizes hope and purity. Snowdrop Foundation celebrates the hope that one day a cure for all childhood cancers will be found allowing the purity of every child to remain untouched by the devastating diagnosis of cancer.

I will also be running the Houston Aramco Half Marathon on January 20 as a "Run for a Reason" fundraiser for the Snowdrop Foundation and have a fundraising page also on that site.
