My Story

30 Aug 2024

Beginning September 1st, I will again be 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.

Cancer is a nasty disease. Having experienced it with Marilyn battling it since January 2021, I am well aware of the toll it takes on a family. Whatever you can donate would be appreciated.

Kind regards,

My Legacy
