My Story

15 Aug 2024

This August, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!

Why? Because right now, over 1,700 children are diagnosed with cancer every year, and 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 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.

Phil

    You should know that together we've broken through the ceiling set by any previous year since I joined the Great Cycle Challenge. Apart from surpassing my personal best, you should all be proud of yourselves for this accomplishment. I'd like to thank each one of you for your generosity. Now it's up to me to meet my riding objective.

    You're All Winners!
