Jo-Ann's Spirit, Our Driving Force
Jo-Ann Danzis embodied grace, resilience, and unwavering hope. Her strength in the face of pancreatic cancer continues to inspire everything we do. She lived with purpose, embraced life fully, and showed us that compassion and determination can shine even in the darkest moments.
At the Jo-Ann Danzis Foundation, we carry her spirit forward in our relentless pursuit to eradicate pancreatic cancer. Every dollar we raise, every event we host, and every life we touch is fueled by Jo-Ann’s legacy; a reminder that behind every statistic is a story worth fighting for.
We are not just raising awareness. We are building a future where early detection, innovative treatment, and lasting cures are within reach.
