My Story

13 Sep 2024

Help Me Fight Cancer!

As you may know, In April 2022, I was diagnosed with Tonsil/Lymph Node cancer. it took 7 weeks of intense radiation and chemo. Since then, my readings have been clear and the future is looking good. Thank you to all who supported me in the fight and I am asking you to help support the fight against Kids' Cancer.

This month I am helping fight Kid's Cancer.

I am raising funds through the Great Cycling Challenge to help 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.

In 2020, 2021, and 2023, I pledged to ride over 500 miles in September and raise $1500 each year. I met my riding goals and you, my supporters, helped me raise over $6,600 dollars.

This year, I am pledging to ride 125 miles in September and raise over $2,700.

Please support me by donating to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Your support will make BIG changes in LITTLEs' lives.

Thank you,

Leigh
