My Story
18 Aug 2025
This September, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer! This is my fifth year of participation, and I am excited and motivated as ever.
I am completing this challenge because cancer is an ugly disease that affects so many lives. This time around, it's become a little more personal because this disease has affected family members, close friends, and coworkers. The pain coupled with the emotional toll it has on those battling this disease is unimaginable. My participation serves as a reminder to all that you are not alone.
No one should have to fight cancer. Everyone deserves to live a happy, healthy life. And very soon, Jehovah God will end all suffering (Rev 21:3,4).
"The human spirit is stronger than anything that can happen to it. -- C.C. Scott"
Please support me by making a kind donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.
Your support will change little lives.
Thank you.

Here's my personal impact over 5 years to fight kids' cancer and save little lives.
