I'm Riding For

Oakley Kiddoo

Oakley Kiddoo

A great friend's granddaughter who is only 2 years old was diagnosed with a 5 cm brain tumor. It's so sad to see such a sweet little angel have to go through this. Our entire community is behind Oakley, her parents, her siblings and her grandparents!

My Story

25 Jan 2024

This will be my 7th year riding in the Great Cycle Challenge and I'm proud to be recognized as a GCC Champion. Times have still been challenging but cancer continues to rage no matter what. I'm going to achieve this goal mile by mile. Any pains I feel on the bike are nothing compared to what these kids go through.

Why do I do it? 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. And this year is even more personal since a good friend's granddaughter was diagnosed with a cancerous 5cm brain tumor. She's a fighter and will beat this!

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.
