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,
Val

My Challenge
-
1%
10 Sep 2024Today I spoke to some colleagues as I was so excited to share my cycle journey and what I am riding for.
One individual told me about a friend who was diagnosed and likes to keep things private and is donating in their honor.
Another individual told me her daughter was diagnosed with cancer and received a donation that saved her life and in turn her mom donated to save someone else’s life.
It’s a cycle that is beautiful of GIVING BACK, without asking for anything in return and just because you can.
I am striving to do better 1% each day. One smile, one holding someone’s door, one good morning or have a great day can change someone’s day more than you know.
Take 1% each day to be a better you! 😉

Thank you!
17 Aug 2024I appreciate each and everyone’s time to donate and learn about the cause as well as myself.
I am trying to do a better job of taking time to reflect.
This moment..
Today…
Tomorrow…
How do we live in the moment?
How do we take the time to notice what blessings we have around us, already.
Be grateful for waking up… everything is a blessing.
Try to smile…
Try to be kind…
Try 1% each day …
