This is my aunt Jennifer, an art teacher and advisor at a public school in Memphis.

While she’s an amazing educator and artist, the love she gives to her family, friends and community is unmatched.

About four years ago, Jennifer noticed a lump in her stomach, and after going to the doctor, she was diagnosed with appendix cancer. She’s been going through chemo, surgeries and setbacks for what seems like forever, but through the course of her treatment, new research to address Appendix Cancer has given her hope and strength. And most of that research has come from the Appendix Cancer Pseudomyxoma Peritonei Research Foundation.

My name is Hank Smith, a kicker for Lausanne Collegiate School. I’m raising money for ACPMP.org, and I’m putting my leg to work to do it. I’ll be kicking field goals and extra points, and you can turn every successful kick into real impact.

Pledge to give a donation to ACPMP for every point I make, or a one-time donation to help fund appendix cancer research. Last season, I was able to add 47 points to the scoreboard, and while they helped my team win games, this year, with your support, we can help find a cure for appendix cancer and help people like my aunt Jennifer in the future.
