I'm Riding For

David Welke

My brother lost his fight with cancer in 2020, besides being a great brother and family member he was a 25+ year space program rocket scientist working on all the NASA space shuttle missions and leaving a legacy with the latest Artemis 1 launch last November 2022. I am happy to support the fight for cancer for all those battling it and affected by it.

My Story

16 Aug 2023

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.
