I'm Riding For

David Saj

My GACC journey started with my brother-in-law David Saj who cared deeply about children battling cancer. David passed away of multiple myeloma in late 2016. When David could no longer safely ride his bicycle, he gave it to me and only asked that I "use it as much as you can"... So, I have been using that bicycle ever since to fundraise for children's cancer research. David used to pray for children with cancer and so I can honor his memory by helping to prevent children from experiencing cancer. That is my goal here... and I'm doing it the best way I know how - by pedaling the bike David gave me and raising money for GCCUSA.

My Story

18 Jun 2026

September 2026 marks my 11th year participating in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer...

Why? Because cancer is the biggest killer of children from disease in the US. Sadly, over 15,000 children are diagnosed every year. Please support my ride by making a donation to GACC. Your support will change young lives. Thank you.
