My Story

22 Jun 2025

In August 2025 I'll be cycling, for a 6th year, in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer.

Why? Because right now over 1,700 children are diagnosed with cancer every year. 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. By supporting SickKids Foundation we can help ensure the development of better treatments, and the goal of ultimately find a cure for childhood cancer.

I'm grateful for your encouragement and your support of a monetary donation as you are able, to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Your support will change lives.

Thank you!
