My Story

3 Aug 2024

I’m spending September 2024 “behind bars” 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, in big ways!

With gratitude,

Bruce

“Thanks for supporting the little ones fighting cancer! I had a colleague who lost her 4-year-old to leukemia. These kids amaze me all the time with their attitudes when facing really difficult diagnoses and treatments. We could all learn something from them, but I hope that no more kids become our mentors in how to handle cancer. I would much prefer that they are healthy and out there exploring the world!”

“The child of a close friend of mine died of leukemia in 1999. He was the age of my son (who is now 33). I think so often about what kind of life he might have had....Nowadays children are more likely to survive leukemia--and research is one of the reasons.”
