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.

Deb

    3 Sep 2025

    Today I'm riding for Kacey. She is 15 months old with stage 4 cancer. This is why I ride.....She needs our help. Medication and treatments cost a lot. Please pray for Kacey and her family. Your donations really do make a difference. Any donation would be greatly appreciated for the care of these children. Every mile is one step closer for them. Thank you for donating.
