I'm Riding For

All the kids and their families that are fighting cancer. And in memory of my daughter Isabel.

My Story

1 Aug 2023

This August, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge for the 8th year in a row to fight kids' cancer!

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.

As a parent who has lost a child to chronic illness, I can relate to much of what these families go through: Unexpected hospital visits, fear and uncertainty, and never knowing what to expect next.

I'm riding in memory of my daughter Isabel and for all the families impacted by this disease.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it. Please donate, your support will change little lives.

Thank you.

James
