I'm Riding For

Haakyn and Olivia

Last year I rode for both Olivia and Haakyn. This year they are both doing so much better in dealing with their cancer, and I am riding again for them. Haakyn is in remission, and has been cancer free for a year. Olivia remains in treatment, and will finish her monthly treatments this next May 2021. Both children have been troopers in dealing with their different cancers, and have been very lucky to have the strong support of their families during their ordeal. It is research like we are raising money for that has helped bring better treatments and understanding of childhood cancer. Thank you so much for donating!

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.

Karen
