Driven by purpose and passion, our mission is to create meaningful change in the lives of those affected by metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Through fundraising, education, and community support, we honor those we've lost and uplift those still fighting.
Raise a minimum of $50,000 annually to fund a dedicated MBC research grant in memory of our Thriver sisters who have passed.

Jacquelyn and her husband Kevin reside in Minnesota, where they are raising their four children. At the age of 38, Jacquelyn attended a routine physical and breast exam. During this visit, she sensed that something was amiss—an instinct often referred to as a woman’s intuition. At her request, she underwent an early mammogram, which revealed a tumor and led to a diagnosis of stage IV metastatic breast cancer.

During this visit, she sensed that something was amiss—an instinct often referred to as a woman’s intuition. At her request, she underwent an early mammogram, which revealed a tumor and led to a diagnosis of stage IV metastatic breast cancer.
The gravity of this diagnosis ignited a passion within her to advocate for change, particularly regarding the alarming fact that only 3% of breast cancer research funding is allocated to stage IV metastatic breast cancer—the only form of breast cancer that results in fatalities. In response, she founded the nonprofit vraniCURE, which is dedicated to funding research for metastatic breast cancer, raising awareness about the disease, and providing support to those affected by it.Thank you for joining me on this important journey!
Original tumor was ER+ HER2 positive breast cancer. Single metastasis to my liver was not HER2 positive
