There's no question why I support the American Cancer Society.

Ken Weiser lit up every room he entered. He was loud, and boisterous, and a walking cliche. His laugh echoed, he greeted strangers like friends, and he cared so deeply for everyone he loved. He was the best of men, best of husbands, absolute best of fathers.

What I’ve learned is that cancer does not discriminate. It prays on the kind and good and the strong, and it makes them fight for their lives. Some people are fortunate enough to beat it, but their lives are forever changed. And in some cases, like that of my dad, cancer prevails. 

Funds raised by the American Cancer Society support cancer patient programs and groundbreaking research that can help save lives. This event also celebrates over 15.5 million cancer survivors nationwide. 15.5 MILLION. That's huge. Let’s do what we can together to ensure that fewer and fewer people become the victims of this disease. Walk with me and my family to honor my dad, and to support those left in the wake of cancer’s destruction with their worlds forever changed. Join me so maybe one day we can put an end to it. See you there.
