My Story

18 Aug 2026

Hey everyone! I’ll be raising money for children’s cancer over the next six weeks culminating with 300 miles on the bike this September. Please donate here!

For donations $30+ I’ll give you a shout on my strava thanking you.

For donations $50+ I’ll send you a postcard thanking you!

For donations $100+ I’ll custom roast you some coffee in a style you like and send it to you with a card thanking you (for the first 20 $100+ donors).

I checked out the funding and all the money goes to the Children’s Cancer Research Fund which seems to do a good job at funding research at great institutions. This matters more esp as NIH funding is getting gutted across the board. The stats are pretty alarming: 1 in 285 children will get cancer before the age of 20 and around one in five will not make it...I can’t imagine the experience for any family going through this and how it affects them.

Any / all donations matter. $1 is totally valid if that’s what you’re feeling and is generous and you’re still a wonderful person if you’re passing on the opportunity.

If you donate $50+ please fill this form out so I can mail you stuff!
