On August 3 & 4, 2024 I will be participating in The Pan Mass Challenge, an annual bike-a-thon in support of The Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. The mission of the PMC is to raise money to support research and treatment of adults and children with cancer and cancer related diseases. This will be my second year participating in this event. I am participating in this event as a two-time Breast Cancer Survivor. I am grateful for the ongoing fight to beat cancer and to be able to call myself a Survivor. As a Survivor I will be part of the Living Proof Community. The Living Proof Community is a community of riders and volunteers who have undergone or are currently undergoing cancer treatment. We are Living Proof of the progress made through raising funds for cancer research and treatment. With the support of corporate sponsorship 100% of every dollar raised goes directly to The Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. This means that you can be assured that your donation to my fund-raising goal will be 100% available to The Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. Last year the PMC raised $72 Million Dollars helping to push the 43 year total to more than $900 thousand dollars. This year the goal is to push that to One Billion Dollars. For 43 years and counting, the PMC has provided a powerful force for progress at Dana-Farber, driving advances across the Institute’s labs and clinics, creating better care and outcomes for patients locally, nationally and globally. This means more birthdays and celebrations, more time with family and friends, more special moments to cherish and more Survivors. This is why I ride. Together let’s grow the number of Cancer Survivors World-Wide mile by mile. Please consider a donation to my fund raising goal of $6,000.
