I'm Riding For

Ian Turkula

Ian Turkula

Riding in memory of my son Ian who was just 18 when he died, and for all other children and families dealing with cancer.

My Story

6 Jul 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 with cancer every year, and sadly, 38 children die of cancer every week.

In January of 2014 our son, Ian died from cancer when he was just 18. In honor and memory of Ian, I am raising funds through my challenge to help kids like Ian. Your donation will enable Children's Cancer Research Fund to support research and development of lifesaving treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer.

Please follow the enclosed link (or paste the link into your browser) and make a donation on my page. Or, join the challenge by getting on your bikes and reach out to your contacts to support you.

Your support will change little lives. All these kids want to do is be kids with a chance to grow up, live and have the brighter futures they deserve.

Thank you and pedal on!
