Hello, and thank you for taking the time to visit my fundraising page.
2026 has been an unexpected year for me.
Earlier this year, I was diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer. While I have been very private about my journey, I am now ready to share my story in the hope that it can help others.
Over the past five months, I have undergone chemotherapy and am incredibly grateful to have completed that phase of treatment. I am now preparing for surgery, which will be followed by radiation.
Like so many others facing a breast cancer diagnosis, this journey has brought challenges, uncertainty, and moments that have tested me in ways I never imagined.
Throughout my treatment, I have seen firsthand how important support, resources, and community are for patients and their families.
That is why I am raising money for the Gloria Gemma Breast Cancer Resource Foundation and its incredible mission of providing education, support, wellness programs, and hope to those affected by breast cancer.
There are several ways you can help:
Join my team and make a fundraising page of your own towards our team goal.
Join my team and walk alongside me.
Make a donation of any size.
Share this page with your family, friends, and social media networks.
Every dollar raised will help advance the important work of the Gloria Gemma Breast Cancer Resource Foundation and provide meaningful support to individuals navigating their own cancer journeys.
Thank you for your kindness, encouragement, and support.
Together, we can make a difference and bring hope to those who need it most.
With love and thanks,
Carissa

Treatment #4 — goodbye hair, for now. 💛 Losing my hair is just another step in this journey, but it won’t take away my strength. Taking it one day at a time, staying positive, and carrying on with gratitude and hope.
