2024 will mark Team Hannah's Bandanas 21st PMC ride—and it feels especially heavy this year, but much more important. My wife, Karen, has now lost both of her parents to cancer, with my mother-in-law succumbing to her battle with lung cancer this past March. We are all deeply feeling that weight. My daughter still deals with the repercussions of her battle with cancer and it seems like every month we hear of a friend, relative or friend of a friend who begins their fight. It keeps on coming and that's why it is all the more critical to continue riding for such an important cause. Cancer is affecting more and more people every day and the funds we raise each and every year for the Dana Farber continue to make cutting-edge breakthroughs in cancer treatment and care. In honor of my in-laws, my dear friend Andy, my daughter Hannah, and all of our other loved ones who have battled this disease, I ask for your continued support.

Last year for Team Hannah's Bandanas 20th anniversary we raised an astounding $489,000 for the DFCI. This pushed our our twenty year fundraising total to over $5 million!!! Not bad for a little team of 20 some-odd riders and supporters! We celebrated our 20th anniversary in PMC style by adding an extra day on the front end and riding the true Pan-Mass. 95 miles from the New York State border on Friday to Sturbridge in central Mass. Then 110 miles from Sturbridge to the start of the Cape on Saturday and then 77 miles up the Cape to finish in Provincetown on Sunday for 281 miles total. It was certainly challenging, but not nearly as challenging as receiving a cancer diagnosis and what that means to you and your family. This year we are back to our traditional Wellesley to P-town two-day route. Every year you all amaze me with your generosity. So please consider once again supporting me, my family, my team, the Dana Farber, and the global cancer research community.

100 percent of every dollar donated supports Dana-Farber’s world-class research and care.
