2️⃣ Days to the Climb! Less than 48 hours to go until our energetic event of mission and meaning. We can't wait to see our Climbers on the stairs! Registration is open online through midnight tonight, and then walk-up registration is available for $50 at the Climb.

Our spotlight for today is on Sonia Lee, of Team Lee! Sonia says, "I’m climbing in the Fight For Air Climb to stand with those fighting for every breath. This mission is personal — my dad lost his battle with lung cancer on July 2, 2024, and my grandfather also endured lung disease. I’m taking each step in their memory and for everyone affected by lung illness."

Thank you for climbing with us, Sonia, and thanks for making a difference in the fight for clean air and healthy lungs for all!

3️⃣ MORE DAYS! 🎉🎉🎉

Today's participant spotlight is on Joey Horton, of team Largo Fire Rescue! In Joey's words, "Being a 30-year career firefighter myself (retired) with the City of Largo and Florida resident for over 40 years, I became interested early on in stair climbing and have been a part of the Tampa Fight For Air Climb for over 10 years.

I do this event in honor of my mother, who succumbed to COPD in 2019. Her picture rides on my helmet every climb I do. At 63, it keeps me fit and I love the camaraderie amongst all of the climbers. We all have a common goal on making it to the top!"

Congrats to the newest member of our VIP Summit Club, Tim Johnson! Tim says, "The biggest impact regarding ALA was that my mother passed from COPD. Personally, last year I had a bout with cancer which makes me thankful to be able to still scamper up the tower at my advanced age!"

We're thankful to see you scamper up the Bank of America Plaza this Saturday, too! Thanks for being a VIP and for leading Team DFCU Later to success.

4 DAYS TO GO! There is still time to join us or donate to the Climb and make a difference in the fight for clean air and healthy lungs for all 🫁✨

Our spotlight today is on Joe Mannino! Joe says, "Twenty years ago, lung cancer took my father, and not a day goes by that I don’t carry that loss with me. He was the definition of a “Mannino,” a little handy one who could fix anything and always showed up. My mom matched that same work ethic, holding our family together and making sure we never felt unsupported. I’m climbing to honor them, to put that same effort into something that matters, and to support families who are still in the fight today." Thank you for being such an integral part of the Climb, Joe! 💪
