To my friends and family,

This month, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer! I am also facing my own challenge - I was diagnosed with non-smoker’s lung cancer last year. But as tough as I might be - these kids fighting their cancers are on a whole different level and that’s why it’s important for me to keep fighting to bring an end to childhood cancer.

Since I’m still recovering from a lobectomy surgery, I am pedaling on my indoor trainer for the entire month and my goal is to ride at least 100 miles.

Why am I doing this? Because cancer is the largest killer of children from disease in the U.S. – on average, 38 children die of cancer every week!

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

It will be tough, but nothing compared to what these kids face every day of their lives as they battle this terrible disease.

And so I am taking on a personal challenge to raise $2,500 to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

But to achieve my goal, I need your support.

Join me in the fight against kids' cancer! Please help me reach my goal by donating at my personal fundraising page:

All funds raised will support Children's Cancer Research Fund to continue their work in developing innovative treatments and finding a cure for childhood cancer.

Thank you for your support.

Best regards, Dena
