In this episode we hear from Kris Knox, who is dedicated to promoting breast cancer awareness and helping find a cure. She is the founder of the Linda L. Vladyka Breast Wellness Foundation. You’ll hear how much Kris is devoted to helping more people become educated and aware of breast cancer, and hear her story of how she is a survivor herself!
Each summer for the past 12 years Kris Knox has worked hard to organize and coordinate the annual Play For A Cure Oregon Softball Tournament in Salem, Oregon. In this show we talk about her passion behind this idea she had, and how much of a positive impact one small idea has made on so many peoples lives. Way to go Kris!
Here are a couple of photos from the tournament:
