My Story

10 Jul 2024

This August, I have pledged 500km on my bike, hoping to raise a minimum of $1,000 while taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

Why? Because cancer is 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 and support SickKids Foundation to allow them to continue their work in developing treatments and finding a cure for childhood 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.
