Week 25 – Dirk Herfurth

In OneHeart Challenge by Dirk Herfurth1 Comment

Hello Zen Martial Arts family,

Today I would like to address you on a personal matter.

As you might know October is Breast Cancer awareness month. This type of cancer is the most common type of cancer with 290k new cases in 2022 in the US alone. Chances are that you know someone that has it, had it, or even passed because of it.

Last year I lost my dear childhood friend, Christiane, who left behind her husband Lars and their two young daughters. My own sister Anke is a survivor. Both are in my thoughts every day and I needed to do something to spare others the pain and the loss to grow up without their mother.

We as a group can take action and Making Strides Against Breast Cancer.

I would like to ask you to join my team Zen Martial Arts Striders on October 16th at 8:00AM at the Capitol (click the link and sign up).In addition I am asking for your donations.

The funds I’m raising will sustain critical research and provide services for people trying to cope with their breast cancer experience. Believe me, every dollar really does count, so I’m asking you to please donate today.

Together, we can make a big difference in the fight against breast cancer.
