I'm Riding For

Stephanie Smith / Skylyr Effler

Stephanie Smith / Skylyr Effler

This is my 7th year riding to fight Kid's Cancer. The past 6 have been in memory of my friend Stephanie; who passed away from Pancreatic Cancer. This year I will be riding in memory of her but also for my nephew who was recently diagnosed with a Non-Germinoma germ cell tumor. It's a rare pediatric brain cancer. He has finished radiation and chemotherapy treatment. He will wait for the results of his latest scan and see it further treatment is needed. I want to thank everyone for their support!

My Story

1 Sep 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.

John
