Jonathan Bruno's Ride
Why I Ride ...
On August 5th and 6th, I will be riding in the 38th Pan-Mass Challenge (PMC), a 192 mile bike ride that raises money for oncology research on behalf of Dana Farber Cancer Institute/The Jimmy Fund. The PMC raises more money than any other athletic fundraising event in the country, and 100% of every rider-raised dollar goes directly to Dana Farber/The Jimmy Fund. Last year alone $45 million was raised, for a total of $547 million since its inception.
I will be completing the ride as part of a fundraising team: the Patriots Platelet Pedalers (http://patriotsplateletpedalers.org), which have been the largest team participating in the PMC for 8 years in a row (hopefully this will be the ninth!). Currently, we are 155 team members strong, and will continue to grow our ranks up until the race.
In the world of charitable organizations, the PMC is truly exceptional in terms of the directness and robustness of the impact that any contribution makes in the lives of patients and in progressing critical cancer research. Every donation brings us closer by the mile. Thank you for your consideration in supporting this cause.
