Thank you for taking the time to view my page for Imerman Angels. This year I will be running my first marathon in support of the work Jonny Imerman and his charity are doing in the fight against cancer.
What is Imerman Angels? Imerman Angels is a free “one-on-one cancer support service” that partners a person fighting cancer (“fighter”) with someone who’s beaten the same type of cancer (“survivor”). One-on-one relationships give a fighter the chance to ask personal questions and get support from someone who is uniquely familiar - a survivor. The Imerman Angels marathon team was founded last year and raised $80,000 and this year we are looking to double that number. My personal fundraising goal for this event is $2,000. That amount, coupled with the efforts of the other 111 runners on the team, should propel us past this year's goal!
