My Story

18 Jun 2025

Hi there,

This summer, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer! My goal is to pedal at least 100 km. throughout the month.

Why am I doing this? Cancer is Canada’s largest killer of children from disease. Over 1,700 Canadian children are diagnosed with cancer every year. Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

I am taking on this 30-day challenge to support cancer research to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve. It will be tough, but it's nothing compared to what these brave kids face every day as they battle this disease and fight for their lives.

So today, I'm asking for your support.

If you can, please make a donation through my fundraising page to support my challenge and join me in the fight to save little lives. Any amount will help.

All funds raised will support SickKids Foundation in their work to develop treatments and find a cure for all childhood cancers.

Thank you so much.

Ron
