I'm Riding For

Lance Tkacs

Lance Tkacs

Though this challenge is to support research for children's cancers, I am riding this year in memory of my dear brother-in-law, Lance. His was a valiant fight over seven years, but cancer finally claimed his life. Knowing the entire family's struggle, I am riding in hope of easing the pain for other families and their children. Thank you for your support.

My Story

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.

Lisa
