Regional Challenge: Charlotte (Duck Dash CLT)

Meet Mallory & The Duck Dash CLT Team

Hi, I’m Mallory Foxx—a wife, mom, entrepreneur, pageant queen, and most importantly, a fighter. At 36, I was diagnosed with Renal Cell Carcinoma, a type of kidney cancer that often goes unnoticed until it’s too late. My diagnosis was a shock. I had no symptoms, no warnings—just a gut feeling that something wasn’t right. Thankfully, my persistence led to early detection, and today, I am one year cancer-free.

But my journey didn’t end when the cancer was removed. I realized how little awareness there is about kidney cancer, even though 81,000 people will be diagnosed this year. That’s why I’ve dedicated myself to advocacy, serving as a Regional Ambassador and Event Coordinator for the Kidney Cancer Association, using my voice to help others catch this disease early.

The Kidney Cancer Association is a global community dedicated to serving and empowering patients and caregivers, and leading change through advocacy, research, and education. Thank you for supporting our mission to be the universal leader in finding the cure for kidney cancer.
