“In honor of my son, Sean Strother, I am making a Valentine's Day birthday donation to the Great Cycle Challenge USA (GCC) to jump-start my campaign to end childhood cancer. The GCC is a national ride benefiting the Children's Cancer Research Fund (CCRF), supporting lifesaving research and better treatment for kids with cancer. The GCC has become one of the largest cycling events in the USA. Since its inception, participants from all 50 states have ridden tens of millions of miles and raised over $80,000,000 to fund research and programs that bring hope and healing to children and their families. Children's Cancer Research Fund uses these dollars to fuel innovative childhood cancer research, focusing on hard-to-treat diseases and survivorship, and to support resources that improve quality of life for kids and families navigating treatment. Please join us and pedal toward brighter futures for these brave children. We're in together. Love, Janet”

“The GCC Team - Sean Strother Family & Friends extends heartfelt thanks to all members and guests who visited our information table at Bike Cleveland's Annual Meeting last month to learn about the Great Cycle Challenge USA, benefiting the Children's Cancer Research Fund (CCRF). We were proud to share how CCRF funds groundbreaking research to develop better treatments and ultimately cures for children battling cancer. A special thank-you goes to everyone who participated in our raffle for the Smart Helmet featuring a customizable DIY LED screen, generously donated by GCC legacy rider Evelin Rios. Your contributions directly help advance life-saving research. Congratulations to our raffle winner, Kathy Sonnhalter of the Cleveland Public Library!
