Dorothy Lou's traverse to support Life Science Cares

$8,880

I'm so excited to share that I've undertaken an adventurous new challenge: participating in this year's Timmerman Traverse across the Cascades to benefit Life Science Cares. Over 20 miles of hiking, 7K elevation gains and most likely uphill both ways.;)

My personal fundraising goal is $35,000, and I'm asking for your support in this meaningful endeavor.

The Timmerman Traverse has a proud history of advancing critical medical research, particularly in sickle cell disease and cancer. What makes this initiative uniquely valuable is how it creates a direct pipeline between today's research and tomorrow's scientists. Your contribution doesn't just fund current research—it helps build the sustainable infrastructure of scientific talent that will drive breakthrough discoveries for decades to come. How meaningful it is to have the opportunity to fund research at its source and change the destiny of a child!

Every dollar contributed is an investment in both immediate research progress and the long-term health of our scientific community. Whether you can give $10, $100 or $10,000, your support makes a tangible difference in this vital work.

Thank you for considering a donation to my Timmerman Traverse fundraising effort. Please help me answer the call to ensure that life-saving research continues to thrive through this generation and the next!
