My mom was a cancer survivor and I am a cancer survivor also. We both were teachers of young children. I cannot think of a more fitting tribute to my mom than the effort to save children from the scourge of cancer.

My Story

My 11th Year in the Great Cycle Challenge: Riding for a Cure

This September marks my 11th year participating in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer, and I couldn't be more passionate about this cause. Why do I ride? Because right now, cancer remains the leading killer of children from disease in the United States. Every year, over 15,700 children are diagnosed, and heartbreakingly, 38 children lose their lives to cancer each week.

Kids deserve to live their lives to the fullest, not fight for them.

Over the past decade, I've proudly ridden 3,434 miles and raised an incredible $11,697 to support the Children's Cancer Research Fund. This organization is doing vital work, developing lifesaving treatments and relentlessly searching for a cure for childhood cancer.

My commitment to this challenge runs deep, not just for the children I ride for, but also from my own personal experience. During these same 11 years, I've been battling cancer myself, having faced both prostate and bladder cancer. This personal journey has only strengthened my resolve to contribute to a world where no child has to endure such a fight.

Please, join me in supporting these brave children by making a donation. Your generosity will directly help fund critical research, giving these kids the brighter futures they so richly deserve.

Thank you for helping to change little lives.
