Raw footage ➡️ finished Reel Editing is one of my favorite parts of what I do because there’s not better way to tell a story behind a brand or event than through reliving the moments from before. I created this video promotion for Whitney’s Race 2026 by pulling together footage from past event and turning it into something that tells a story, getting people excited for what’s to come. Need someone to turn your camera roll full of raw footage into content that makes those memories last forever? That’s kind of my thing! 👀 #KRCreative #ContentCreation #VideoEditing #SocialMediaManager

HEIDELBERG UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL 🎗️🏥 I had the incredible honor of lecturing and shadowing at one of the world’s largest pancreatic cancer surgery centers. The week began with a lecture on my work and research in pancreatic cancer to the oncology and surgery departments. From there, I had the rare opportunity to watch surgeons perform pancreatic cancer surgeries up close in the OR—an astounding experience to witness lives being saved firsthand. They even allowed me to handle the tumor, spleen, and lymph nodes after removal, which was both humbling and eye-opening. For the rest of the week, I interviewed social workers, oncologists, surgeons, researchers, and more to understand how Heidelberg approaches pancreatic cancer care. I gained invaluable insights into Germany’s healthcare system and am returning with fresh perspectives and ideas for policy in the United States. I am so grateful to have met this amazing team of dedicated professionals. Even across the globe, there are people who wake up every day committed to saving lives. Truly an honor and a blessing to have had this experience.

Meet Madison Marsh Morris, President of the Whitney Marsh Foundation, the first active-duty Air Force officer to be crowned Miss America (2024) and a new member of PanCAN’s Health Equity Committee, where she serves as a Rural Health Representative. 💜 Madison’s connection to PanCAN is deeply personal. She became involved after losing her mother, Whitney Marsh, to #pancreaticcancer at just 41 years old. In the seven years since, Madison has worked alongside PanCAN on Capitol Hill, at #PanCANPurpleStride and now through our Health Equity Committee — all driven by a mission to ensure no patient is ever left without hope. She shares,“Every day, I wake up with a mission to serve pancreatic cancer patients across the globe because I know what it feels like to be left with no hope." Health equity is central to PanCAN’s mission, and Madison’s leadership reflects that commitment. She champions the belief that where someone lives or how much they earn should never determine their chance of survival. Madison’s perspective is shaped by her family’s experience in Fort Smith, Arkansas, where her mother chose to receive chemotherapy locally while traveling to MD Anderson for care. That journey inspired Madison’s continued research at Harvard, where she currently studies rural disparities in access to care in partnership with PanCAN. We’re grateful for her passion and leadership as we work toward a future where every pancreatic cancer patient has a fair chance — not just to survive, but to thrive. Learn more about PanCAN’s Health Equity Committee at the 🔗 link in our profile. 💜

Every year is somehow better than the last. Perhaps it’s all the good people who keep me around.

WORLD PANCREATIC CANCER DAY 💜🎗️ Today, we raise hope for every patient past, present, and future. We remember those we’ve lost and stand with those still fighting. I lost my mom seven years ago to this disease when she was only 41. She traveled back and forth between Arkansas and MD Anderson for treatment, and we saw firsthand that the burden of cancer is so much more than what happens inside a hospital room. It’s the long hours on the road, the days too sick to travel home, and the emotional weight carried by both patients and the people who love them. That’s why today, I’m incredibly proud to announce a new travel fund with MD Anderson to ease the financial strain for families seeking the best care. Beginning in 2026, the Whitney Marsh Foundation will cover non-medical costs for Arkansas patients traveling to MD Anderson, helping lift one of the biggest barriers to receiving life-saving treatment. No family should ever face a life-or-death decision because of where they live or how much money they make. To our amazing volunteer team, community partners, and the donors who have stood with us for seven years, thank you. To the hundreds of you who come year after year to Whitney’s Race, thank you for bringing your joy and giving us purpose. Your support made this possible. We cannot wait to launch new programs in the coming year and continue expanding the impact we make for patients and their families. This one’s for you, Momma 🪽 Join us or donate at whitneymarsh.org
