I'm Riding For

Jennifer Lesle Grong

Jenny was initially diagnosed in late summer of 1977. She survived three years of surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy; but passed on All Saints Day, 1980. She was a real trooper. Clear Cell Blastoma is one of the childhood cancers that does not have a good survival rate. Much more research is required to improve the outcomes.

My Story

13 Aug 2020

This September I am once again 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.
