My Story
Help Me Fight Cancer!
As you may know, In April 2022, I was diagnosed with Tonsil/Lymph Node cancer. it took 7 weeks of intense radiation and chemo. Since then, my readings have been clear and the future is looking good. Thank you to all who supported me in the fight and I am asking you to help support the fight against Kids' Cancer.
This month I am helping fight Kid's Cancer.
I am raising funds through the Great Cycling Challenge to help 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.
In 2020, 2021, and 2023, I pledged to ride over 500 miles in September and raise $1500 each year. I met my riding goals and you, my supporters, helped me raise over $6,600 dollars.
This year, I am pledging to ride 125 miles in September and raise over $2,700.
Please support me by donating to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.
Your support will make BIG changes in LITTLEs' lives.
Thank you,
Leigh
