I’m starting the Saskill Agency team for Making Strides Against Breast Cancer because this cause has become deeply personal to me.
I’ve participated in this walk since I was a child, but this year, I’m walking with an even more meaningful reason behind every step.
In April 2026, my aunt lost her battle with triple-negative breast cancer. Watching someone I love face such an aggressive cancer—and seeing how limited treatment options and resources can be—has made me even more passionate about supporting the American Cancer Society and its mission to improve the lives of people affected by cancer.
My grandmother has also been battling breast cancer. A few months ago, she rang the bell to celebrate finishing treatment, but her journey isn’t over. She continues to deal with the lasting side effects of hormone blockers and everything that comes with life after treatment.
I’m walking for both of them.
I’m walking for my aunt, whose life was taken far too soon.
I’m walking for my Grandma, who has fought so hard and continues to fight.
I'm walking for my classmate, Ariana, who is a 30 year young mom fighting as hard as she can.
And I’m walking for every family that has heard the words “you have cancer” and deserves better options, better treatments, better support, and ultimately, a cure.
My biggest hope is that one day, no child will have to grow up without their Gigi cheering them on and getting to watch them grow.
This year is especially exciting because I also have the opportunity to bring my business, Kelsie Saskill - State Farm into the fight by sponsoring and building a team around this cause. I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to bring together friends, family, customers, coworkers, and our community to make a difference.
Every donation, every team member, and every mile walked brings us one step closer to a future where fewer families have to experience the heartbreak of losing someone they love to cancer.
I’m walking for my family. I’m walking for a cure. And I’m walking so future generations can have more birthdays, more memories, and more moments with the people they love.
Join us, donate, or simply help us spread the word. Every step counts.
