"All of us on Team In Training are raising funds to help stop leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin lymphoma and myeloma from taking more lives," explains Team Member Micaela Morgan. "I'm completing this event in honor of all individuals who are battling blood cancers. These people are the real heroes on our team, and we need your support to cross the ultimate finish line - a cure!"

Kwik Car Wash donated 50% of their wash sales from the fundraiser's duration to the organization. Team In Training members were also on site selling delicious home-baked treats and assisting in vacuuming vehicles for donations.
