In our lifetime, 1 in 2 men and 1 in 3 women will be diagnosed with cancer.

I lost my mother, father, father in-law, grandmother, and friends to cancer. This is not my story alone - I share it with many of you. 

FACT: Doctors with ideas to fight cancer can’t get funding for clinical trials and research. 

SAA hosts charity swims to raise money that funds clinical trials and cancer research. Over $80 million in SAA grants to our beneficiaries has turned into an estimated $200 million in new funding that they might not otherwise have received

I joined the SAA community so that, together, we can make an impact. I am challenging myself and asking your support to raise as much money to fight cancer as we can. Every $ raised here in St. Louis stays here to benefit the Siteman Canccer center for Cancer Treatment and Research.

Please support me by sponsoring my effort to raise money and making a gift. The money you give will go towards cancer research, prevention and treatment and will make an impact in the fight to find a cure.  Thank you for your generosity and may it lead to a cancer-free world!

Thank you for your consideration. - Kurt
