I'm Riding For
Emma
I'm especially riding for my granddaughter Emma. She has fought a great battle with a rare form of blood cancer. She is thriving but the journey continues. Through research and medical trials she has beat the Big C but treatments are still being administered. Through organizations like the Children's Cancer Research Fund children like my granddaughter can have a fighting chance of a long life. When I saw that Emma was the ambassador for the top tier I had to adjust my goal to $2500.00 and 250 miles. Please consider donating to help these children like my granddaughter Emma so that children can have along life. Thank you for your consideration.
My Story
This September, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!
Why? Because 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 to allow them 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.
