Ulman Foundation

As we continue through Mike’s story, he reflects on the realities of survivor’s guilt, loss, and the tension between moving forward with you life while mourning the futures others never got to have.

This is the space Ulman Foundation exists in, reminding young adults they don’t have to carry it alone, and that everything they are feeling has a place here and a community ready to hold it with them.

What started as an idea became a movement 💙

We officially wrapped up the very first year of So Do We with an incredible Changemakers Celebration at Under Armour HQ, and wow… students, give yourself a HUGE round of applause!!

Through educational classes, volunteer opportunities, fundraising efforts, and the Changemakers Challenge, So Do We students showed what’s possible when passion meets purpose. These students stepped up as leaders, advocates, and changemakers for young adults impacted by cancer, and we could not be more proud of what this first year became.

What happens when survivorship becomes something you feel like you have to hide?

In this continuation of Mike’s story, he reflects on entering college after cancer and the quiet tension of wanting to move forward while carrying an experience that shaped everything about him. Beneath the friendships, new beginnings, and “normal” college moments was an ongoing struggle with identity, isolation, and the fear of being known only as “the cancer kid.”

That’s why spaces for connection and community matter so deeply. Ulman Foundation exists to remind young adults impacted by cancer that they do not have to navigate survivorship alone. 💙

Connecting with new people can feel uncomfortable, but growth often starts just outside your comfort zone. Our community is here to support you, whether you’re looking to talk with others who understand what you’re going through or simply take a moment to step away and breathe. 🎗

Take a look at our upcoming support groups! We’d be honored to have you join us and share an evening together. 🎨 🎮 ✍️ 🏳️‍🌈
