If you need just one reason to embark on a Komen Philadelphia Race for the Cure fundraising program, the story we share with you now IS IT.
We invite you to share a very moving experience with us right now by walking a mile in the shoes of an exceptional young woman, Tanesha. Imagine yourself...
...at the very young age of twenty-three. Ambitious, healthy, beautiful and a promising modeling career on the horizon. Your life lies full in front of you. You envision a future with a wonderful husband. Oh, and of course, a houseful of children, and later grandchildren, to love.
Having just completed your education, you embark on the first steps of the joyous journey. Then that cold, impenetrable steel wall comes down upon your path.
Twenty-three, and you have breast cancer. Breast cancer, no job, no health insurance.
No health insurance...no hope...no future.
Please, click here to read the full story of Tanesha, and be inspired - as well as inspire others - with an eye-opening demonstration of just how critical your fundraising is to our future.
