I'm Riding For
Levi
Levi is a 9 year old warrior from Greenwood NE and he is the son and grandson of friends of ours. Levi was living his best life playing both baseball and basketball and enjoying time with his five siblings when he was diagnosed with T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma in March of this year. He is currently a patient at Childrens Hospital in Omaha receiving chemotherapy multiple times per week. He will be fighting this cancer for two and a half years. He is praying to finish treatment in July of 2024. I am honored to be dedicating my ride this year to Levi, an amazing young warrior who is living his faith daily. Please join Bob, Michael, and me in prayer for Levi's compete healing, and Jesus' comfort and peace. "So be strong and courageous, all you who put your hope in the Lord!" Psalms 31:24 NLT
My Story
I devoted my professional career to children and their vision challenges. As important as my work was, this annual fundraiser is much more important because of the life-saving potential.
Don't you agree that kids should be living life, not fighting for it? I'm participating in the Great Cycle Challenge to raise money for pediatric cancer research for the 6th year in a row. This year my fundraiser takes on a new meaning for me. Our friends' grandson/son is now in his own fight. And it is a long, hard battle. (You can read about him below.)
Please help me raise funds for Children's Cancer Research Fund, a non-profit that is searching for lifesaving treatments and cures ...for ALL pediatric cancers.
Bob and I have primed my fundraiser again this year with our own donation because we believe you deserve to know how much this means to us. Thank you for any help you can give!
