I'm Riding For
Amélia’s
This year I will NOT cycle but instead, I will WALK. Unfortunately, the first year I joined after 19kms I fell and fractured 2 vertebrates. It's been tough and I've come to terms that due to these fractures, I can no longer cycle. I have invited some cycling friends to join this cause alongside me. As mentioned I will WALK...please join me...you can aim for whichever goal you would like with lots of hope for the entire world. I want to do what I can and Walking is what I can do.
My Story
This August, I will be participating in the Great Cycle Challenge to support the fight against childhood cancer.
Each year, over 1,400 children in Canada are diagnosed with cancer, making it the leading cause of disease-related death among children.
Children deserve to live their lives, not battle for them.
While I unfortunately cannot cycle this year due to broken vertebrae, I am still committed to raising funds to support the SickKids Foundation in its ongoing efforts to develop effective treatments and ultimately find a cure for childhood cancer.
I am walking in honor of my cousin, Amelinha, who is facing her own battle with cancer. I’d be grateful for your support through a donation to help provide these children with the brighter futures they deserve.
Your generosity will make a meaningful impact on young lives.
Thank you for your consideration and support.

8 Jun 2025I’m basically doing everything in my power to get fitter for this WALK.
Just today I have a good friend who lost her 3 year old little girl to this disease. I urge you to help in any way. Doesn’t have to be by sponsoring me. Of course it all helps. But feel free to donate or not. A word of encouragement truly is needed especially with so many children who suffer so much to this disease 🦠
Thank you for reading this.

Even the smallest amount counts. 🤗
1 Jun 2025I understand that things are difficult all over the world right now, and many are asking for donations. If you’re unable to contribute, I completely understand, and I truly appreciate you taking the time to look at this page. However, if it’s possible for you at all, I would be grateful for any donation to help me continue with this challenge in support of childhood cancer research. Your support means so much.
