My name is Cali Vail, and I am a 17-year-old student at North Tahoe High School.  Please support me in raising money for a non-profit organization called Boarding for Breast Cancer, (B4BC).  The mission statement for B4BC is to “empower young people to make positive and healthy choices that promote lifelong wellness through outreach, prevention, sustainability, and supports programs for the prevention of cancer,” all while celebrating life! 2019 will be my sixth year participating and supporting B4BC at the Skate the Lake event at Lake Tahoe. To date, I have raised over $5000 for cancer research and education.

I started fundraising for B4BC because I believe in the importance of community service,
Cancer research and supporting people who have been impacted by cancer. Eliminating cancer is important to me because several of my family members and many of my friend’s lives have been painfully affected by cancer. I want cancer researchers to figure out how to prevent and eliminate ALL forms of cancer so that no one has to suffer from this disease or its repercussions. B4BC is an environmentally conscious non-profit and runs a zero-waste blueprint for all of its events. Additionally, B4BC continually strives to decrease their carbon footprint.

My family believes community service and helping others are essential core values that lead to a meaningful and productive life. B4BC’s cause is to raise money to support cancer research, to educate people, especially young girls, about cancer awareness, the importance of early cancer detection, and teaches how to do self-breast exams. B4BC’s platform operates in a supportive and fun way that focuses on health, encouraging others, challenging oneself,  having fun, and making new friends.  B4BC raises money for breast cancer research and education by hosting fun events that include action sports such as skateboarding, snowboarding, and surfing. These events have silent auctions, raffles, music, good-natured competition, and cool prizes. B4BC was founded in1996 to fund research groups to help understand and better treat breast cancer, and breast cancer patients, to educate and empower people with knowledge, and to FIND THE CURE FOR CANCER!
