Tim Stowell has been a friend of ours for years. He is an amazing man who works tirelessly in his efforts to raise awareness and funds to help fight childhood cancer.

The American Red Cross has been helping all of those affected by all three hurricanes. Capital Region residents have been traveling to the affected areas and now more are being deployed to Puerto Rico.
There are many causes that I get behind. One that I volunteer for year round is the Mechanicville-Stillwater Breast Cancer Walk. There are many events throughout the year, and I try to help out with all of them.
When it comes to a great charity like St. Jude, everyone has personal reasons why they support their life-saving work. This is why I will walk to end childhood cancer.
