My Story

10 Jul 2024

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.

Patty

Three Years on Two Wheels: My Great Cycle Challenge Journey

20 Sep 2025

Year One – Learning the Ride

When I first joined the Great Cycle Challenge, I wasn’t sure what to expect. Could I log the miles? Could I stay committed? Every pedal stroke became a promise—not just to myself, but to the children and families facing cancer.

Year Two – Stronger with Support

The second year became about community. Friends, clients, and family rallied around me with encouragement and donations. Together, we raised more than I ever imagined, and every mile carried the weight of hope we were building for kids who deserve healthy, joy-filled childhoods.

Year Three – From Miles to Meaning

This year, something shifted. The first two years were measured in distance, but this fall the ride became about something deeper. It wasn’t just the miles—it was the climb, the challenge, and the resilience it takes to keep pushing forward. And more personally, it became about being present and relevant in my daughter’s world. Sharing this challenge with her—through example and commitment—has given every ride a new layer of purpose.

The Ride Continues

The month isn’t over yet, and every dollar makes a difference. Commitment is what it takes—not only from me on the bike, but from all of us—to bring hope and help to families facing the unimaginable. Your support doesn’t just fund research, it inspires families to keep going, to find strength in the hardest days, and to believe in brighter tomorrows.

If you’re able, please consider supporting this ride. Every contribution fuels progress, research, and hope. Together, we can make a difference—one climb, one mile, one child at a time.
