I'm doing 100 Skips a Day for kids with genetic diseases and I need your help!
Every day this August I'm taking on the Jeans for Genes 100 Skips a Day Challenge.

It's for a really important reason: I want to help the 1 in 20 kids facing a birth defect or genetic disease, like cancer and cystic fibrosis. I'll be pushing myself this August because these kids need our help!

Every dollar raised from my challenge goes to Children’s Medical Research Institute and helps find treatments and cures that will save children’s lives. Your support will change the future for children living with genetic diseases!

Will you support my challenge? Please donate to my fundraiser now!

Day 3

Woke up feeling pretty crook today and spent most of it in bed… but then I thought about the kids who are really doing it tough with cancer. My day in bed is nothing compared to what they go through every single day. 💛


So I got up, grabbed my skipping rope, and managed 120skips!
