Team dragonfly was created for connection to nature that running brings to our team members. We all have family & friends that cancer has touched not only does it affect the person who has cancer, but their family members as well. 

With the donations made to Cancer Connection new beginnings can be made for families living & fighting through their season of cancer. It is our hope that you will help us make change possible for our families & friends find their guidance, strength, and joy as they receive help to gain new possibilities from Cancer Connection. 

Dragonflies are sent to us from heaven above as a sign, a message, and reminder from those we have lost of eternal love. 

To all our family & friends we have lost to cancer we see you as our messenger & protector as you fly by us as we run with your beautiful wings glistening in the sunlight. 

Welcome to my fundraising page! I am happy to run for a cause I believe in and am trying to 'pay it forward' and make an impact by raising funds for an organization that helps local people dealing with cancer. All proceeds support Cancer Connection and they offer their services free of charge to make a difference in people's lives.

Please help me reach my goal and support this cause.

No donation is too small! Thank you for supporting me!

This race has a vibe of gratitude, appreciation and so much love. Not only are runners happy to run, volunteers are happy to help and cancer-warriors are happy to benefit from the free services provided by Cancer Connection.
