Cancer has touched nearly every life in some way. For many of us, it’s personal. It’s the loved ones we’ve lost too soon, the empty chairs at family gatherings, and the grief that never fully disappears. It’s also the loved ones who continue to fight—those who show remarkable strength, resilience, and courage through diagnosis, treatment, and survivorship. We have witnessed both the heartbreak of loss and the powerful determination of those who keep going, even on the hardest days.

The Lo Tide Run for Cancer exists to honor those stories—to remember, to celebrate, and to stand beside cancer warriors and their families. Events like this are more than a run; they are a lifeline. Continued financial support is essential to ensure that individuals and families affected by cancer have access to the resources, care, and support they need throughout every stage of the journey.

At Peaceful Balance Counseling, we see firsthand the emotional and mental toll that cancer can take. Beyond the physical fight, cancer brings fear, anxiety, grief, trauma, and profound life changes. Our work focuses on supporting individuals as they navigate the emotional and psychological challenges associated with a cancer diagnosis, treatment, remission, and loss—helping them find grounding, hope, and resilience during an incredibly difficult time.

By donating to this fundraiser in support of the Lo Tide Run, you are standing with cancer warriors and their families. You are helping ensure that no one has to face this journey alone—emotionally, mentally, or practically. Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a meaningful difference.

Together, we can honor those we’ve lost, support those still fighting, and continue building a community rooted in compassion, strength, and hope. Please consider donating and being part of this important cause. 💚
