My Story

2 Aug 2024

This August, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

I have recently had open heart surgery and have been given the okay to get back on the bike, so I'm going to do what I can mileage wise this month to help raise money for this great cause.

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.

Living with cancer myself for the last 8 years, cycling is a great way to stay healthy and support the fight against kids 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.
