Help us Climb to Conquer PTEN Cancer Syndrome!

Donation protected
Dear friends, family, and fellow advocates,

I'm Jordan Pazian, and I'm reaching out to you with a cause close to my heart. On February 28th, 2024, Rare Disease Day, a dedicated group, including patients, advocates, family members, guides, and porters, will ascend Mount Kilimanjaro to raise awareness and funds for PTEN Hamartoma Tumor Syndrome (PHTS). This rare genetic condition puts individuals at a heightened risk for various cancers, benign growths, and neurodevelopmental conditions.

Why It Matters:
This cause hits home for me as my sister and niece grapple with PTEN, facing more battles with cancer than anyone should endure. Beyond my family, we climb for the brave children who are impacted by PTEN syndromes, facing challenges no child should know.

About PTEN Hamartoma Tumor Syndrome:
PHTS, encompassing conditions like Cowden syndrome (CS) and Bannayan-Riley-Ruvalcaba syndrome (BRRS), demands attention. The PTEN Hamartoma Tumor Syndrome Foundation, founded by my sister Kristin Pazian Anthony, is tirelessly working to fund research, educate, and support patients.

Our Goal:
We invite you to be part of this journey and contribute to our goal. Whether you have $10 or $1,000 to spare for charitable activity, every donation matters. Funds will directly contribute to PTEN foundation initiatives, and support the climbers, porters, and guides embarking on this challenging journey in Tanzania.

Transparency and Milestones:
We're setting a clear goal: $5,000 initiates the first donation, and will share when cut a check to the foundation. Each step takes us closer to changing the landscape for hereditary cancer syndromes.

The Journey Ahead:
Help us transform lives, one foot of elevation gain at a time. Follow my training and climb here, on Instagram, and LinkedIn!

Your support matters and your generosity can make a significant impact. Please share this message with your friends and family, encouraging them to contribute and join us in conquering Kilimanjaro for PTEN Syndrome.

For the children facing these challenges, let's climb together towards a brighter future.

Gratefully,

Jordan Pazian
