Pan-Mass Challenge 2025
Here we go again ... 200 miles or bust ... and the team is growing !
On August 2nd & 3rd I will be riding as part of Team Forward on the 200 mile Pan-Mass Challenge bike ride to raise money for the Jimmy Fund that provides funding towards research, treatment and support of children and their families who are battling cancer. The PMC, which was founded in 1980, is on its 55th year and has so far raised $500 million in funds for the Jimmy Fund and the related charities, and now includes over 6,000 per year.
This year is speical, no only because ths is my
I am asking for your support - small, medium or large - by donating to the ride. I know many of your friends and family participate in other events that benefit charities, so give what you can and don’t feel obligated or guilty - but know that my butt will be on a bike seat the size of an iPhone for 16 hours over a two day period while we ride over 200 miles!
It's easy to donate — just click on the following link and you can help me: http://profile.pmc.org/jp0257
IMPORTANT - Please note that 100% of you donation is tax-deductible - not one penny of the money goes towards the actual cost or logistics of the ride - all of it dos to the PMC and the Jimmy Fund. The ride and operations itself is funded solely by the fees that I and the other riders pay and the donations that sponsors make in the form of food, equipment and logistics. ALL of the donations go directly to the Jimmy Fund and the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston and are used to help families such as London's deal with the expenses of obtaining treatment at world class centers such as Dana-Farber.
Thank you !
Jim
