Melanoma Research Foundation - Team M4M

Marine Corps Marathon District of Columbia

Liz Taylor's running to Beat the Beast!

Melanoma is a cancer that kills in my family.  Recently, my grandmother, Sally Williams died of a brain tumor.  One of her last wishes was that I would exceed my goal as I raise money for MRF.  Her death is a huge loss in my life and in her memory I am encouraged to run a strong race. Please consider donating in memory of her amazing life.

Melanoma has killed before as I never met my grandfather because he died at age 48 from Melanoma.  My dear sister Becky has been battling this disease since age 17.  It is not just a disease of sun worshippers.  In our family Melanoma is genetic and attacks those who are in the sun the least.  It is also one of the cancers with the smallest amount of research funds.

Please consider donating to my cause.  Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support the Melanoma Research Foundation.

Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!
