My Story

2 Sep 2024

This September, I am taking part in the 2022 Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer! I am riding for Joseph Allie, 18, who battled Leukemia for 4 years and survived! #JTAstrong.

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.

Consider donating or join our #jtastrong team and ride!

Thank you.

Rob
