Diedre's Match Walk - Sponsorships

Diedre’s Match Walk is a final fundraiser for Diedre. It’s her opportunity to raise money for the Honor Health Research Institute so the work that has kept her alive the past six years will continue for others that follow her. 

Extending time and quality of life is at the core of the research being done at HHRI.  Although Diedre’s cancer has advanced to a critical stage that is shortening her time, she remains hopeful that one more clinical trial might be just what she needs.  If not, one will surely be available to help others.

As she reaches out to her friends and family to make individual donations, she is also seeking sponsors interested in supporting research for treatment of colon cancer to match the individual donations being made.  Sponsors can identify any amount in $1,000 increments.  Whenever the individual donations hit $1,000 markers, our sponsors’ dollars will be used to match those donations. We currently have $25,000 promised in sponsorships ready to match individual donations!

If you would like to be a sponsor and match at least $1,000 of individual donors’ contributions to launching a clinical trial for Diedre and others, please leave your contact information below in the comment section or email Diedre at DiedresMatchWalk@gmail.com.

Thank you to these sponsors for Striking a Match!

Diedre's Match Walk - About Diedre

Image
About Diedre I like to think of myself as a woman who defies her age, her disease, and anything that gets in my way of loving people. As is the case for many of you, my favorite quote comes from a movie:  Love is: L ife’s  O nly  V alid  E motion.  I believe unconditionally that love is the answer to everything in this life. We need to believe in each other and to love one another. Born in Minneapolis, MN, I lived most of my adult life in Michigan and then returned to Minnesota in my 40’s where I found my soul mate, Alexx.   Lovebirds from the start (we married in 1991), we eventually became snowbirds, making the move to Arizona where we’ve lived for the last 25 years. I’m as diversified in my interests as I was in my careers. After 15 years as an educator, I spent another 15 in the corporate world as a sales and marketing executive. The next 15 years were spent in theater and entertainment, ending my career life acting, radio disc jockeying, directing and producing plays that Alex
