My Story

1 Aug 2025

Here I go again, this is my 5th year riding in The Great Cycle Challenge, and I still can't imagine being a parent or grandparent seeing one of your children or grandchildren suffering from Cancer, so this August, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

Why? Because right now, over 1,400 children are diagnosed with cancer every year. That is 27 children diagnosed with the disease every week. And it's the biggest killer of children from disease in Canada.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

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

Please support me by donating to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Your support will change little lives.

Thank you.
