I'm Riding For

Lyla

My beautiful niece Lyla lost her battle with Cancer. I am riding to honor her memory and raise money to fund research for kids cancers. Her specific one was so rare doctors in both the USA and Canada were consulting on her case to learn more. We love you Lyla and will ride in your memory till there is a cure!

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.

Summer
