Steph and I shared our breast cancer testimony at the American Cancer Society’s ResearcHERS Luncheon in 2021 at the University of Minnesota. You can hear us at the 38 minute mark in this video!

My Dad, Jon Althoff, is the co-chair and ambassador for the American Cancer Society’s Men Wear Pink campaign again this year! This year will be the 5th year he serves in this role–he started in 2019 when we were diagnosed and has raised tens of thousands of dollars for research, awareness, and advocacy to date! This year, I’m an ambassador for the first time, too–you can see our donation links above and here:
