Donate to Stand Up To Cancer Today - Matching $5000 Gift
Friends. This Giving Season I am Standing Up to Cancer.

I am doing this in honor of my mother in law Janet who has been battling stage 4 cancer this entire year. She is a rock and an inspiration to our family. Thanks to great care and her resilience, she is currently in remission.

I am launching this campaign to help the incredible team at Stand up to Cancer fulfill their mission to raise awareness and fund research to detect and treat cancers with the aspiration to cure all patients.

SU2C’s Early Detection and Cancer Interception initiatives focus on proactive approaches that identify cancer risks and intervene early.

These initiatives include:

Advanced Screening Techniques: Utilizing cutting-edge technologies such as liquid biopsies, imaging, and molecular analysis to detect cancer markers before clinical symptoms arise.

Prevention and Early Intervention: Research into how cancer begins and evolves has paved the way for treatments that can be applied at the earliest stages of cancer formation, aiming to halt progression before the disease becomes aggressive.

These methods reflect a shift from the conventional reactive approach to one that emphasizes prevention and early management, offering patients more options and potentially more effective outcomes.

I will match every dollar contributed up to $5000 to get us to our goal

Thank you for your support!

Stand Up To Cancer on Giving Tuesday
This Giving Tuesday, I’m raising funds for Stand Up To Cancer, an incredible organization dedicated to revolutionizing cancer care. I'm fundraising in honor of my aunt Bobby, my aunt Paige, my friend Tyrone, and everyone who has a loved one impacted by cancer.

I'm hoping that together we can raise $1,000 today for this important cause. Your donations will help Stand Up To Cancer in their mission by:

Funding groundbreaking research to detect and treat all types of cancers.

Raising awareness to make early-stage detection a standard part of cancer care.

I chose Stand Up To Cancer because I believe in their vision of a world where no one has to face cancer alone. Every donation counts, no matter the size. Please consider donating today.

Running With Purpose
Hey Friends,

At the start of this year, I made a promise to myself: to take on something challenging—something that demanded discipline, sacrifice, and heart. I wanted my 7-year-old son, Jayce, to see what it looks like to show up, push through, and keep going—even when it’s hard.

So I signed up for the San Francisco Half Marathon—13.1 miles across hills, wind, and the iconic Golden Gate. And mile by mile, I’ve been training. Starting with short runs, building to longer ones. But every step has brought one thing into sharp focus: I’m not the only one running a hard race.

Some of the strongest people I know are battling something far tougher than miles on a road. They’re fighting cancer—with courage, grace, and grit. I’ve been wearing a pink bracelet for months now, in quiet solidarity and loud support.

Now, with race day just days away, I’m running with purpose. I run for my son, Jayce. For my wife. For our family. For my sister—a cancer survivor. For sweet boy Rocket, who recently passed. For the loved ones we've lost. And most of all, I run for my friends in the fight right now: Sunny (Bouakadakis) Blount, Kim (Bohnert) Cody, Kevin Bachar, Steph Saffer, and Mars Wasef.

I’ve chosen to raise funds for Stand Up To Cancer (SU2C)—an organization fueling groundbreaking, collaborative cancer research. If you feel moved to support, a donation of any amount would mean the world. And even just sharing this with someone else helps the cause.

Thank you for reading, for supporting, and for being part of this journey.

You are my inspiration.

You are why I run.

With gratitude,

Roja

Help Stand Up To Cancer Save Lives with New Therapies

SU2C brings together the best and the brightest researchers and mandates collaboration among the cancer community. By galvanizing the entertainment industry, SU2C has set out to generate awareness, educate the public on cancer prevention, and help more people diagnosed with cancer become long-term survivors.

Stand Up To Cancer® (SU2C) funds groundbreaking cancer research to detect, intercept, and treat cancers with the aspiration to cure all patients. Connecting the top minds in science, SU2C has been at the forefront of cutting-edge cancer research for over 15 years, facilitating collaborations that move new therapies quickly from the laboratory to the patient. An integral part of SU2C’s identity is its relationship with the entertainment community, which helps raise awareness and builds broad public support for SU2C’s mission.

With a strategic focus on early detection and interception, SU2C’s bold goal is to reduce mortality from cancer by 25 percent in the next five years. This milestone is achievable through strategic funding of immunotherapies that can wipe out cancer, vaccines that prevent or treat cancer, and new methods that utilize artificial intelligence and large language models to predict and diagnose cancer earlier than ever.

Live Alive 2025 - help us Stand Up to Cancer
Five years ago (during COVID) I ran a solo marathon and raised over $10,000 for cancer research, thanks to the generosity of family, friends, and colleagues like you.

I thought my marathon days were over, until my 17-year-old daughter Sylvie told me that she wanted to run a marathon and asked me if I would run it with her. She also thought it would be important to continue to raise awareness for cancer prevention and cancer research - a cause that is important to us, and important to so many of you who have been personally affected by cancer.

So here we go!

We are training for the Twin Cities Marathon on Sunday, October 5th!!

Our goals this time are simple:

1) finish the race (ideally without walking)

2) raise as much money as possible for cancer research

Our race motto is: "Live Alive 2025"

We run for the loved ones we have lost, for all survivors, and to help those who will face cancer in the future.

Please consider a contribution to help this great cause.

If you are unable to contribute personally, please share with others, and please keep us in your thoughts on Oct 5th!

All funds will support the Stand Up To Cancer organization.

Hold for Hope: Join the Fight Against Childhood Cancer"
Hi, I’m Carlos Reis, and I’m inviting you to join me for Arms United Against Cancer—a fundraiser dedicated to courage, compassion, and a whole lot of fun! I’m raising money for Stand Up To Cancer (SU2C), focusing on helping children fighting cancer—and, if we reach major goals, I’ll support Tourette syndrome organizations too.

Why This Matters to Me

Since I was a kid, I’ve lived with Tourette syndrome and spent time in treatment and research studies at Yale Child Study Center. Those early experiences taught me about resilience, hope, and supporting others through tough times. Over the years, I’ve donated to the Tourette community—often through my own special wristbands, which I’m happy to share with anyone who’d like one as a thank-you for your support!

About the Challenge: Arms United Against Cancer

This isn’t your typical fundraiser. Arms United Against Cancer is an endurance challenge where anyone can join and test their strength—holding water jugs or buckets out at shoulder height for as long as possible. The longer you hold, the more money you (or your sponsors) pledge.

Want to spice it up? Try it one-handed, form teams, or invent new, fun challenges together!

The main idea: “Holding strong, together, for hope and healing.” Let’s rally as a community, have fun, and raise as much as we can for a truly important cause.

How You Can Help

Donate directly—every dollar supports cancer research and patient care through SU2C.

Want a TS (Tourette syndrome) wristband? Just mention it when you donate, and I’ll send you one!

Whether you join the challenge, sponsor a friend, or cheer us on, your involvement makes a real difference.

Where the Money Goes

Every dollar raised through Arms United Against Cancer will go directly to help children battling cancer (via SU2C). If our fundraising exceeds the stretch goals, I’ll also donate a portion to Tourette syndrome advocacy—because I know how powerful support can be for those fighting invisible battles, too.

Let’s Do This—Together!

Let’s make Arms United Against Cancer bold, joyful, and deeply meaningful. Together, we’ll lift each other up—literally and figuratively—helping kids in the fight of their lives, and raising awareness for Tourette syndrome as well. Thank you for being part of this journey and for making a real impact!
