My Story

11 Sep 2023

YEAR FOUR!

This September, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge again to fight kids' cancer!

Due to some “biking in life” logistics, I wasn’t sure if I’d be able to do this FUNdraiser again this year, but here we are! I’m getting a late start, so my goals are a little lower than previous years, but that doesn’t mean I’m taking this any less seriously. This cause is IMPORTANT! So here we go!!

**As always, anyone who donates $100 or more can request a song for me to sing while biking which I will post on Facebook and Instagram @singingcyclistnyc. Follow along to witness all the extra FUN that will go into this FUNdraising!

Your support will change little lives.

DID YOU KNOW?

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.

Join me in raising funds through my challenge, so we can help these kids and support Children's Cancer Research Fund allowing them to continue their work to develop lifesaving treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer.

Let’s give these kids the brighter futures they deserve!! <3
