Washington, DC. Local lung cancer survivor-advocate Shannon Monahan, and her husband Mike, joined our co-founder, Chris Draft, at his Washington Redskins Alumni Reception. Nichelle was able to share her story with some of the Washington Redskins Legends.

In 2012, we launched our inaugural Team Draft Survivor Series initiative on CNN during a nationally-televised prime time special focusing on lung cancer and our International Campaign to Change the Face of Lung Cancer. As a part of our International Campaign, the events allow us to celebrate our survivors, raise awareness, and give hope to those battling the disease, as well as shine a light on the important work being done at cancer research and treatment centers around the country.

Team Draft’s goals are to create a unique experience for participating survivors and to raise awareness on a local, national, and international level by using each event and each survivor’s story to weave a broader narrative about the state of cancer and the hope that now exists for those battling the disease.

Special thanks to the Washington Redskins, ALK Positive, Astra Zeneca, the NFL and all of our Team Draft supporters for helping make this event possible.
