I'm a proud supporter of the PMC because it is leading a charge to beat cancer. In fact, last year 100% of rider-raised revenue went directly to support the Jimmy Fund and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute's tireless commitment to finding a cure.

This is my fourth year riding and I am humbled and inspired by the opportunity to contribute. This year, I will ride with my two sons, Justin and Nick, my husband, Jerry and my neice, Melissa.

Like you, I have lost too many beloved friends and family to this dread disease.

On my helmet I have the names of loved ones who are survivors and ribbons for those for whose memory I ride. This year I added 5 more survivors and, sadly, one more ribbon. One one for me.

Last year I discovered thanks to a routine dermetology scan that I, too, had cancer.. And am blessed to know I am in the 99% survival group and am now living proof that donations make a differnce in curing cancer.

Yet, we ride because people like you are generous enough to support this endeavor.  I am just the one who peddles.  You are the one who makes change possible

With your help, I look forward to continuing to make a difference.

Thank you for any small amount you can give to help us all beat cancer
