My Story
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.
Nicholas

Fundraising Goal SMASHED!
11 Sep 2024Huge thanks to everyone who has donated so far to this cause!
Yesterday, the riders collectively raised $1,787,378. This means that we were able to attain the full matching amount of $1,500,000 from the anonymous donor group! Since, in fairness, this $1,500,000 is split evenly among all donations yesterday, the matching amount that is applied to my personal fundraiser is 83.92% of what I raised.
The amount that was matched to my personal fundraiser was $1,227.77, which means that yesterday, those who donated to me helped raise an astonishing $1,463.
The combination of the fundraising that we'd already accomplished, what we raised yesterday, and the match, rocketed me fair beyond my $2,000 fundraising goal for this year! And there are still some corporate matching donations pending that might push us over $3,000!
In addition to this year's fundraising goal. You also helped me surpass a total of $10,000 raise for this group over the 6 years I've been participating.
Now it's my turn to uphold my end of the bargain and finish out my 500 miles of riding this month. Currently I'm sitting right about at 170 miles, which is right on schedule.
Again, thank you all so much!

PS. Hopefully this year I find the time/energy to get a new picture to use for my profile picture that has me in one of the challenge jerseys!
