SUPPORTING Breast and Ovarian Cancer Research

I'm joining the 2026 Mother’s Day Classic to help raise funds and awareness to fight breast and ovarian cancers.

In 2024 I underwent treatment for invasive ductal carcinoma, which took a significant toll on my life as well as those closest to me. Since then I have heard many more stories from women and their families who have had to go through similar experiences, and some have been more fortunate than others.


I am grateful for the dedicated funding for research into these cancers and the difference it has makes to the treatment, health and future outlook of people like me.


My family and I walked in last year’s Mother’s Day Classic for the first time. This year, although I’m continuing to deal with the ongoing effects of cancer medication, I can’t wait to take part again in support of raising funds and awareness for breast and ovarian cancer.


I’m reaching out to you now to ask for your support for the 2026 Mother’s Day Classic - whatever donation you can make is hugely appreciated!

Together the Mother’s Day Classic community has donated...

$48.23 million

Since 1998 to the National Breast Cancer Foundation.

$2.57 million

Since 2024 to the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation
