As many of you know, I am riding the PMC this year for the fourth time! Well - I was PLANNING to ride the PMC for the 4th time anyhow....but the organizers of the PMC have wisely chosen to cancel the PMC this year in light of the current health crisis challenging us all in 2020. Regardless - our team has continued to ride and it is our goal to raise as much as possible in service of cancer research and also in memory of Evan Mandeville - in whose memory we ride every year. We are planning our own modified team ride on August 1.
It has been an absolute pleasure and honor to be asked to join the Evans Crew Team again for our reimagined 2020 PMC (http://www.evanscrew.org/home.html). We ride in memory of Evan Mandeville, the son of two of our team members who was diagnosed with an incurable brain tumor when he was only 11 years old. This team is an exceptional group of family and friends whose commitment to this ride and to the memory of Evan is inspiring and humbling.
Tim and Aimee established the Evan T. Mandeville DIPG Research Fund at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute where he was treated and the riding team participates in the Pan-Mass Challenge as its primary fundraising vehicle. 100% of all donations made through the PMC goes directly to Evan's research fund.
So - while our ride is a very different one this year...and current circumstances make fund raising an even more challenging task, I am asking that you condsider a contribution if at all possible. The work and research for cures and treamtent for cancer never rests, and the funds to support that work are as critical now as they have ever been. Thank you for your support and consideration - every bit makes a difference.
