Last weekend in Alaska was the Clean Air Challenge Cycle for Air event. We wanted to share this shoutout to some incredible volunteers, because without volunteers, these events simply COULD NOT happen. We’re so grateful for each and every one!
"We want to give an extra special shout out to the whole Rothacker Family! Not only did these guys load EVERYTHING needed for the event into the U-Haul- but they also came back and unloaded it all! Plus, Jeremy was your trusty SAG driver, Kiri and Ryan crushed the gravel route on a tandem bike, and Mom and Dad were there cheering them on!
Thank you Rothackers!!

Honored to once again receive recognition from the City of Hollywood for supporting lung cancer awareness and advocacy. This mission is bigger than any one person — it is powered by the incredible volunteers, advocates, and community members who continue showing up with compassion and commitment. Thank you for being part of this important cause.
Wishing all our riders an amazing Clean Air Challenge ride tomorrow! Hoping for clean air, clear roads, zero snow and that the mountain is out there showing off. 🚲
If you’re feeling inspired, even a dollar or two goes a long way in supporting this awesome ride. /cleanairchallenge (Link in bio)
Had such a great time attending the 2nd Annual Turquoise Taco Tuesday in support of Lung Force and the American Lung Association 💙🌮
It was amazing seeing the community come together on Cinco de Mayo for such an important cause raising awareness, supporting those impacted by lung disease and cancer, and reminding people the importance of health and hope.
From the vibrant atmosphere and delicious tacos to the meaningful conversations and community connections, it was truly a beautiful evening. Grateful to support organizations that continue making a difference and saving lives. 💙✨

It's happening!
On May 16th you can begin the day at Pier 16 and enjoy a meaningful morning filled with activations, live music and connection. Then, we’ll take to the vibrant streets of Lower Manhattan, creating a sea of turquoise as we stand together for lung health. It’s a powerful occasion to honor the memory of lives we’ve lost and lift up those who need our support. See you there!

You may think you know everything you need to know about asthma…
But for millions of people living with it, asthma is a chronic condition that can impact sleep, work, school and everyday life, often in ways you can’t see.
This Asthma Awareness Month, let’s learn the facts, debunk misinformation and support better breathing for all. 💙 https://bit.ly/4cFhj59
