Welcome to Chelsey's Team Continuum 2010 NYC Half-Marathon Page !
Hi Everyone!
I hope everyone’s year is off to a good start! As part of my new year’s resolution for 2010, I am participating in the New York City Half-Marathon taking place on March 21st. I have decided to dedicate my training and run to Team Continuum.
Team Continuum is a non-profit organization dedicated to taking immediate care of anyone involved in fighting cancer. They give cancer patients access to the everyday cure by providing immediate non-medical, assistance to patients and their families where the diagnosis results in disruption, hardship and uncertainty in their daily lives. They have bought airline tickets, purchased schoolbooks and laptops for children, as well as paid bills for patients struggling to take care of themselves and their families. They fill in the physical and emotional gaps of support so cancer patients can have the strength to focus on their treatment.
Team Continuum also provides funding to health care facilities and foundations, to enhance the delivery of care, communication and educational services for cancer patients. One of their more recent projects is the creation of the Team Continuum Center for Hematologic Malignancies. This center will be a place of excellence for the diagnosis, treatment and after care service of the three primary blood cancers: leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma. Having my Mother diagnosed with a hematologic disease, I truly support all efforts to help treat and cure this challenging blood cancer.
Please help me to support Team Continuum. No donation is too small. (Encouragement and kind words are also welcome
) I look forward to reaching my goal of $1,000 for Team Continuum and crossing the finish line on March 21st. I am not only running for Team Continuum, but also for you and your loved ones who have been affected directly or indirectly by cancer. Thank you for your support!
xoxo
Chelsey
