KBJR 6 Anchor Jessie Slater still raising funds for cancer research despite Grandma’s Marathon race cancellations

DULUTH, MN -- KBJR 6 Anchor Jessie Slater was training for the Garry Bjorklund half marathon. It would have been her first ever half marathon.

She was partnering with charity group CureSearch which raises funds for research into children's cancer.

She reached her goal of over $500, but unfortunately, we learned Tuesday the race will not happen.

You can still donate to the cause here at her fundraising page.
