Kim is one amazing woman! Read more about her below.
Kim first became involved in fundraising through the Breast Cancer Avon 3-Day walk, as well as her local American Cancer Society's Relay for Life for which she was on the committe. Then she got a flier for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Team in Training (TNT) and her grand nephew, Jonathan, had recently been diagnosed with acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL). She found that a strong sign from God to get busy with this cause and has loved it ever since. She has met more and more people (including us!) who have been affected by leukemia and lymphoma cancers.
In addition to fundraising, she also works a full-time job in the summer at the local county park right on Lake Michigan and also works part-time at the same park for the winter. If all this is not enough, she also raises money for her church's youth program.
Kim, I am so proud of you!!!
Your marathons and fundraising events have been incredible!
One of these days I will have to do one with you!! ::Katrina
