Jogging for Jordyn 5k Run-Walk
Donation protected
#joggingforjordyn
Former collegiate track athlete, future Doctor of Physical Therapy, and our amazing friend. Adversity comes in many forms and for Jordyn it just so happened to be in the form of Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Jordyn was diagnosed with NHL in April of 2020 near the end of her final didactic semester of PT school. And yeah, she still finished! Luckily, she has had amazing support from family, friends, and everyone from Bellarmine University's Doctor of Physical Therapy program. Jordyn is now receiving treatment and will be for the weeks to come. She needs the continued support now more than ever!
·Please consider supporting Jordyn and her family by donating and participating in this VIRTUAL 5k Run/Walk. All funds go directly to Jordyn and her family to contribute to the medical costs that come with this diagnosis.
·Not a runner/walker? All are welcome to donate to help Jordyn and her family! You do not have to complete the 5k Run/Walk to donate. Any donation amount is appreciated and accepted.
