Treasured Chests
2010Kelly is a single mom, a 3rd grade school teacher, a former MN Vikings Cheerleader, a cable TV music host, but most importantly…she is all of these because she has been cancer free since 2002. Driven by determination and passion to improve breast cancer awareness after beating it, the wake up call that “cancer could happen to anyone, but me?!!” motivated her to “found” Treasured Chests in 2005. Her nonprofit organization combats this disease that affects 178,000 American women each year.
The Treasured Chests "PINK-y Promise is to raise awareness & monies for early detection, research, & prevention by directly helping those diagnosed with breast cancer. Kelly hosts several events each year which include the Rock the Dock Runway Show, MN Saints Games, Golf “FORE” A Cure Tournament, a Motorcycle “BRA” Run & many more entertaining outings for all ages to attend. The events are successful thanks to those who generously support the events with their talent, time, sponsorship and resources. As a result of her passion, she and her team are making a difference in Minnesota by supporting those who are fighting, sharing the admirable stories of survivors, and honoring loved ones who lost their lives to breast cancer.
