My Story

9 Sep 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.

Mike

    “Hi Andy! Thank you for supporting my Great Cycle Challenge! With your help I surpassed my goal of $300, and raised $700 that will go to fight childhood cancer! I think GCC is a worthwhile cause...so much so that I have participated for 6 years and have raised nearly $3000. Thanks to family and friends like you! Unfortunately, I fell short of my mileage goal of 300 miles and finished with 150 miles. I went to Colorado for a ride on September 21st and when I returned I had a total of134 miles. But then I ended up with a chest cold that continued through September and into October. And then every day in Tucson has been well over 100 degrees. I know...that should not be an excuse! However, GCC has notified us that our mileage will continue to be counted through October, so I think I'll end up with 300 miles by then. Again, thank you for supporting me! Mike”
