BIO
Scott Selland is a Boxing Athlete, taking part in the 2023 Fight To End Cancer Fight Team.
The last several years have presented us with unprecedented challenges both old and new. I lost a family member to cancer in 2021 that left an unmendable hole in my wife's life. I would be hard pressed at this time to point to a friend, co-worker or family member that can't share a similar story.
When I set out on this challenge it was to support the research needed to beat cancer. My father-in-law had a close call with prostate cancer several years ago that was going to require potentially risky and invasive surgery. Not wanting to accept an easy defeat we researched other options. Through good fortune, we were able to enroll him for treatment using the (new at the time) da Vinci robotic system and I'm happy to say that he's been cancer free for almost ten years. None of which would have been possible without research and innovation into new cancer fighting techniques.
I can feel it. We're on the cusp of something great. A breakthrough that is going to knock cancer out, but we need your support. I'm putting my body and mind to the test so others hopefully don't have to, please give generously.
See you in the ring!
