Save Lives: Promote Men's Health Awareness

Why I’m Fundraising for Men’s Health Awareness

To be honest, I got extremely lucky. I did not educate myself or put regular checkups/self-exams at the top of my priority list. In fact, even when I stumbled upon something that felt off, I still neglected to see a doctor for about a month thinking, "Oh, this is probably nothing." Unfortunately, it was not nothing, and I quickly entered a world of multiple opinions, surgery, treatment plans, and uncertainty about what the rest of my life would look like.

As a cancer survivor, I now know firsthand how critical it is to be proactive about our health. My journey thus far has taught me that early detection can make all the difference, but too often, men ignore warning signs or delay seeing a doctor until it’s too late.

This National Men’s Health Awareness Month and through the holidays, I’m raising funds to spread awareness and encourage men everywhere to prioritize their health. The goal is simple: to make sure more men know the importance of regular checkups and to empower them to take immediate action if something feels off.

With your support, we can create more awareness and help men understand that caring for their health isn’t just an option; it’s essential. Every donation goes toward campaigns and resources that encourage men to listen to their bodies and seek medical guidance early on.

Let’s work together to make sure every man has the information and encouragement he needs to put his health first. Thank you for being part of this mission to save lives.
