Alison Rush's Ride

My inspirations are my Dad, who has been cancer-free since 2007, and my dear friend Matt Shea, who passed away in 2013 after a courageous 10 year battle with cancer. I miss him every day.

Since March of 2012, I have been fortunate enough to work at the Pan-Mass Challenge. 100% of every rider-raised dollar goes directly to Dana-Farber for lifesaving cancer research and treatment and it's the most successful athletic fundraising event in the country! Our goal for 2017 is $48 million and, since 1980, the PMC has raised $547 million! This year, the ride will take place on August 5th & 6th and we're gearing up for another great event.

While I'm not able to ride on the weekend, I feel incredibly lucky to be even a small part of the amazing work that the PMC is doing and I hope that you will consider donating to such an important cause!
