My Story

31 Jul 2025

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.

My friend's daughter Sophia was diagnosed with Leukemia on July 29, 2025. She just turned 1 on July 24. She also has Down Syndrome. She lives in Wisconsin with her parents and siblings.

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.

Jen S.

“In solidarity with Jen on her mission to help find an end to childhood cancer, we'd like to help donate and spread the word in honor of our little girl Sophia. She was recently diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia. No child should ever have to face this fight, but we certainly won't let them fight alone.”
