Participant Profile for
Cherie Berke
Last Updated: March 24, 2009
I am from Pearland, Texas United States of America and I am 53 years old. I’ve been skydiving for 18 years and have made 5500 plus skydives during that time.
My professional occupation is in medical imaging.
My Biography:
In the half a century I've been given on this earth, I've had the privilege of learning the value of good people and had the fortune to find them in many corners of my world. Skydiving gives expression to my energy and desire to excel in an arena where the whole is more than the sum of its parts. The simplicity of enjoying the camaraderie at sunset after a day of skydiving, be it at Nationals, a world record, or fun jumping, salts my life thoroughly with contentment.
My Hobbies & Other Interests:
My other leisure time activities revolve around family, fitness, and friends - the more of those, the merrier!
Why I feel it’s important to participate in JFTC:
In my profession I'm in daily contact with health challenged people and many among them are dealing with the ravages of breast cancer. Their courage in the face of advesity taps the wellspring of strength women over the ages have drawn from in times of need. There has been a fantastic amount of progress made through research, but there is so much yet to be accomplished. It is important to me to participate in Jump For The Cause 2009, simply because I can help.
To all who feel compelled to donate to Jump For The Cause 2009, a heartfelt thanks. You DO make a difference in making the world a better place. Blue Skies!
