My Story
This September, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!
Cycling has brought so much to my life over the last few months. As a working mom of 2, it has been so beneficial not only for my physical health but also for my mental health. I am incredibly grateful that I have found something that challenges me and helps me grow along the way.
Because of that, I am honored to use this opportunity to help a great cause. Right now, cancer remains the leading cause of death from disease among children in the United States. More than 15,700 children are diagnosed every year, and sadly, 38 children lose their lives to cancer every week.
As a parent myself, I cannot imagine the challenges these families face. 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.
