This is my 17th year of riding the Pan Mass Challenge. Many of you have been consistent, generous donors over that period, and I thank you for that support.
I am committed
Today I've committed to raising $12,000 for cancer research by riding in the 2019 Pan-Mass Challenge. On August 3-4, I will join 6,500 cyclists in the PMC ride, an annual bike-a-thon that raises money for research and care at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI) in Boston. I will be riding the 168 miles from Wellesley to Provincetown, with Saturday night spent at the Mass Maritime Academy in Bourne.
I hope I can count on your support
The PMC raises more money for charity than any other single event in the country - $654 million since 1980 and $56 million last year alone! This success is the result of a lot of people riding for and caring about a cure. And because every penny matters, 100 percent of your donation goes to DFCI.
This year I will again ride for a brave 9 year-old boy who is suffering from Ewing’s Sarcoma. This rare form of cancer typically strikes the bones of young boys. As a result of his treatment he lost part of his leg, but I’m glad to say he is now cancer-free.
Although not a particularly scientific survey, I have noticed many more people dealing with brain cancer. Our beloved brother-in-law died six years ago shortly after diagnosis, as did a dear friend a few months ago. Currently we know of two friends dealing with it and having some success with chemotherapy.
Here is an interesting article from the DFCI of a recent advance in treating severe brain cancers: First-of-its-kind treatment beats back notorious brain tumor
Your money is urgently needed to support the research and treatment into these and other forms of cancer.
Will you do you part to help our children and grandchildren and so many others benefit from the research and delivery of treatments and prevention being done at the Dana-Farber? To make your tax-deductible contribution please log on to www.pmc.org, select Donate, and search for Martin Rogers or eGift ID # MR0111. If you prefer to send a check please make it out to PMC/Jimmy Fund and send to Marty Rogers, 47 Glenridge Drive, Bedford, MA 01730.
I want to thank you again for your past financial support and your continued encouragement.
Thank you so very much and best wishes to you and your family,
Marty and Carol
