My Story

19 Aug 2025

In August 2025, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer! This will be my 9th year cycling, and I'm thrilled to be able to do this!

Why? Because right now, over 1,400 children are diagnosed with cancer every year, and it's the biggest killer of children from disease in Canada.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

So I am raising funds through my challenge to help these kids and support SickKids Foundation to allow them to continue their work in developing treatments and finding a cure for childhood cancer.

Please help if you can by supporting me and making a donation - any donation, to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Your support will change little lives.

Thank you.
