I'm Riding For
Michel Barreto & In support of Esperanza Castellanos
My Story
This August, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge for the ninth year in a row, and my goal is to pedal 520 kilometres throughout the month to fight kids' cancer!
Why am I doing this? Because right now, over 1,400 Canadian children are diagnosed with cancer each year. Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.
As most of you know, I lost my Dad to cancer in January 2016. He fought cancer 4 times in his life, he succeeded 3!!! Thanks to the research done in cancer, I was able to enjoy my Dad for 28 extra years!!!
And I even have more motivation as my wife Esperanza beat cancer 3 years ago, thanks to her courage and also the advances made through research to better understand how to treat this disease.
So I am raising funds to honor them (Misael Barreto - Michel- & Pancha) by helping these kids and supporting the SickKids Foundation to continue its work in developing treatments and finding a cure for childhood cancer.
The challenge will be tough, but nothing compared to what Michel & Pancha went through, and what these brave kids face every day as they fight for their lives and battle this terrible disease.
And so to show my support, I am taking on my own personal challenge to raise $520 to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.
But to achieve my goal, I need your help.
Please support my challenge and join me in the fight to save little lives by making a donation through my fundraising page.
Here's the link to my page: https://greatcyclechallenge.ca/Riders/JohnBarreto
All funds raised will support SickKids Foundation to provide care, develop treatments and find a cure for childhood cancers.
In my first 8 years I have ridden 9,682 Km during the month of the challenge and raised $7,060. Please help me to get to $7,600 and 10,200 Km this year.
Thank you for your support.
