We walk this marathon each year in honor of our mother/grandmother, Geraldine Felty, who battled breast cancer twice, 30 years apart. As a team, we wanted a name that showed support for both those who battle this awful disease as well as the people and families that support them, while also embracing the 26 miles walked. The fact that the TBBCF donates 100% of all donations to research sets itself apart from other major fundraising organizations and is a motivating factor for us.
