Sue's Crew is the story of how cancer affected just one family, we know there are thousands and thousands more out there! Isn't it amazing how one families story has been turned into a positive because of the love of a daughter and her brother and sister and now so many other people, strangers and friends alike! Susan Hillebrecht will live on because of the dedication and caring of a group we call
Sue's Crew in Maryland and in Arizona! People are indeed incredibly giving and absolutely caring! We are in it to end it! Susan Hillebrecht passed away from breast cancer on August 4th 2010. From that point forward her daughter, Kristen Hillebrecht and her friends, brother and sister, have been on a mission to do something positive in the fight against breast cancer and other forms of cancer as well! SUE'S CREW was created in 2010 by Kristen, who got involved with a 5k walk in Washington, D.C. In 2011 the fundraiser "Shooters for Ho***rs" came to be and raised thousands of dollars! Kristen's friend Amy Gibson also did a "Shooters For Hooter's" at the same time in the Bethesda, MD area again raising thousands of dollars! In 2012 "Shooters For Ho***rs" returned in Western Maryland along with Nicole Wigfield's "Breast Fest". Also in 2012 came the big walk! 40 miles in Washington, D.C. with Kristen and Nicole! Lot's of blisters, lot's of tears , some of sadness and some of joy and a great feeling of accomplishment and the wonderful awareness that you were helping someone else fight and get through this terrible disease! Also in 2012 , Sue's Crew-Arizona was created! Jim Hillebrecht walked 27.2 miles and raised $4,000 dollars in 2012 and $ 33,000.00 in 2014! and we hope to do even better next year when he walks 30 miles in May 2015.. If you want to pledge Jim, call 602-717-6746 or e-mail at [email protected]! Thanks for everyone's support. it's incredible what a difference even twenty five dollars makes! Kristen and Amy did the 40 mile walk again on May 4th, 2013 in Washington, D.C..
