More Than Ribbons for the American Cancer Society

More Than Ribbons is a fundraising team headed by Jennifer and her husband, Brad. After winning a fight against breast cancer, Jennifer was inspired to raise funds and build awareness for all cancers so that everyone affected by the disease can have that same fighting chance.

The team is named “More Than Ribbons” because cancer and other illnesses are about more than just ribbons. The ribbons are pretty and they are a great way to show support and spread awareness (trust us, Jennifer and friends have their share of pink), but they are such a small piece of the puzzle. We are more than cancer. We are people. We are sons, daughters, mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents, friends, workers. We are fighters. We are survivors. We are mourners. We are More Than Ribbons.
