My Story

9 Jul 2025

This September, I am embarking on my 6th year participating in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

Why? In the summer of 2020 I discovered an affinity for biking and was blessed to stumble across this revolutionary cause. I have been blown away by the true kinship amongst the community of riders as well as the support and generosity of my family and friends. Thankfully, I do not personally know a child struggling with cancer but I have family and friends who have battled this ugly monster and I know how hard it can be on the body, mind and soul. Over the last 5 years I have watched many children handle this battle with a level of strength, hope and grace that I only pray I can strive to one day. Their stories inspire my ride!

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. I am only one person but with my voice I can give awareness to this cause and the money I raise will allow Children's Cancer Research Fund 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.

  • Turning Donations Into Miles—and Hope
    9 Jul 2025

    This year, my mileage goal starts small—because it's more about raising funds than racking up miles. BUT: for every $10 donated before September, I’ll add 1 mile to my goal!

    There’s also a Kick Cancer’s Butt Day in September (date TBD) where donations are matched—so if you’re planning to give big, that’s the day!

    Can’t donate? No problem—sharing this post helps spread the word! Every share = more eyes on the cause = more kids helped. 💥

    Every dollar now = more miles I ride 💪 Every dollar then = double the impact. Let’s do this together!

    “Thank you so much, Dionne! Pushing me to ride those extra miles in September! More importantly, your support is helping raise money for kids fighting cancer. I appreciate it more than you know! P.S. Let me know if you want to ride with me! I’m loving the new bike I got and our talk was what made it impossible to walk away from the deal they offered me!”
