Support My Big Climb! & Things to Do in Seattle, 3/22/18 & Beyond
/
FEATURED
- I’m doing the Big Climb with my family on Sunday and in true form, I haven’t done any fundraising yet. I know. I would love your help! All proceeds benefit The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. The Big Climb is a stairclimb up the Columbia Center - the tallest skyscraper in downtown Seattle. There are 69 floors of stairs, 1311 steps, and 788 feet of vertical elevation. Although it will be challenging, it pales in comparison to what blood cancer patients go through. Donate here!
