I'm Riding For
Addi and Joan
This year I ride in the Great Cycle Challenge not only for my wife Joan who has survived cancer of the throat twice, but also for a young lady whose story gives Joan a great deal of inspiration and motivation. Joan has followed Addi's Journey on Instagram for the past couple of years. It is the story of a brave young eight-year-old girl who has already experienced more challenges in her life than most adults face in a lifetime. When she was only two, Addi was diagnosed with Stage 4 Neuroblastoma Cancer. Over the course of the past several years she lost both of her biological parents, an aunt, and a grandfather. You can read about Addi's Journey on this website: https://addisjourney.com/welcome-to-addis-journey/
My Story
This September, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!
Why? Because right now, cancer is the biggest killer of children from disease in the United States. Over 15,700 children are diagnosed every year, and sadly, 38 children die of cancer every week.
Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.
So I am raising funds through my challenge to help these kids and support Children's Cancer Research Fund to allow them to continue their work to develop lifesaving treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer.
Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.
Your support will change little lives.
Thank you.
Dave
