My Story

18 Jul 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.

Gerald

“Nick, thanks for your donation! This means a lot to the kids and their families. This is such a terrible disease and we need ways to fight. It would be great if some day we simply gave our kids a spoonful of medicine that cured it as fast as ibuprofen does for fever! Thanks again for contributing!”
