The Nennie Foundation Tournament
Second Annual Nennie Scramble
The tournament in honor of Jennifer Walker Myers, fondly known to her nieces and nephews as “Nennie,” served as an inspiration to many during her intense and courageous battle with cancer for over ten years. Jenn advocated for herself and underwent multiple treatments and a clinical trial to continue thriving. She served as a patient advocate through Cervivor and other organizations, using her voice to tell her story and fight for better resources in cancer research.
Always a philanthropist at heart, during Jenn’s final months, she conceptualized The Nennie Foundation. Jenn recognized that she was fortunate in her cancer experience to have excellent access to healthcare and a broad network of support. The Nennie Foundation aims to help those who are not as fortunate by providing financial support to cancer patients surrounding their healthcare needs.
