Greetings,

Thank you for taking the time to visit my donation page.

I have made the decision to participate in the 2023 Climb for Clean Air series, organized by the American Lung Association, by climbing Mount Rainier in July. This challenge is not only an opportunity for personal growth, but it also serves as a means to support my sister Robyn, friend Joanne and individuals affected by lung disease.

My purpose in undertaking this climb is to advocate for a healthier future, COVID-19 research, and clean air. The funds raised will be used to support groundbreaking research, critical education, and advocacy efforts that will provide lifesaving treatments and improve the quality of life for over 36 million Americans diagnosed with lung disease.

By joining me and contributing to the Climb for Clean Air, you can make a meaningful difference in the lives of patients and caregivers affected by lung disease. Every donation counts, and together we can take steps towards a world free of lung disease. Your support is urgently needed, so please join me today and help save more lives.

All donations are 100% tax deductible and will receive an official receipt. Additionally, for donations above $100, your name will be inscribed on my climbing helmet, joining me on my ascent to the summit of Mount Rainier. 

If you are interested in contributing in other ways, you can check if your company offers gift matching, which can double the impact of your donation. You can also become a fundraising partner by hosting an event, raffle, or auction, among other initiatives. For more information, please email me at jessica@theblueprints.io.

As a novice fundraiser and seasoned adventurer, I believe that once you make a decision and commit to going all in, that is the day your dream will start to become a reality. Your contribution will help make my dream a reality, and more importantly, help save lives.

Thank you for your support and generosity. Please donate today to help us achieve our goal.
