My Story

6 Aug 2025

This September, Doug and I are once again taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

We are riding to raise money for the kids who cannot ride right now because they are fighting cancer.

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 we are raising funds through our 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 us by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Your support will change little lives.

Thank you.
