Dearest Friends and Family,

This year marks my 16th summer involved with the PMC. And although we have made (and certainly will continue to make) huge strides in the fight against cancer, there is sadly still much work to be done.

Over the last 16 years we (YOU and I) have personally raised just shy of $64,000 for the Pan Mass Challenge. My goal this year is to get our number over $68,000. The PMC to date has raised $717 Million since it's inception in 1980. These are life changing, and life saving, numbers. I am asking you to work with me to keep these numbers growing.

So here is my plea to you in a few words: Cancer is awful. We need to make it go away. Help.

I promise to continue to give nothing short of 100% when it comes to my fundraising efforts and commitment to the mission of the Pan Mass Challenge. Please consider supporting this mission and making a donation. Please also contact me directly if you wish to have a ribbon made in honor of a loved one. 16  years worth of ribbons will be joining me on the journey again this summer.

This year's effort is in loving memory of all those we have lost to cancer in the 16 years since I was first a PMC participant and it is in honor of those who continue to fight the good fight. It is also dedicated to my loving friend and neighbor Roseann Sawyer. Not a day goes by that my family does not miss you dearly.

With love and gratitude, Jennifer
