In just a few more days, it's time to get riding!!  The riding will soon be over but the the fight will continue with all of our help! I am more than half way to my fundraising goal and it's all thanks to friends, family and folks that I don't even know. 

I am reaching out to share something very special to me and to ask for your support as I participate in the Pan-Mass Challenge (PMC) this year. This cycling event not only raises crucial funds for cancer research and treatment through the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, but it also serves as a meaningful way for me to honor the memories of my sister, Nancy Adams, and brother-in-law, John Chateauneuf, who battled cancer courageously. Every mile I pedal is a tribute to their strength and resilience. I get to ride in their memories, embracing the challenges of the route as a testament to the challenges they faced. I find it hard to write these requests, but this list reminds me that it is very much NOT about me. The PMC is a collective effort that brings us together to fight against cancer. My goal is to raise $11,000 to contribute towards the mission of Dana-Farber, which has been at the forefront of cancer treatment and research. Every donation, no matter the size, will make a significant impact in the lives of those affected by cancer. Because every dollar that I raise goes directly to research cures and treatments that means that every dollar has a chance to make a difference, to be the dollar that makes another breakthrough. If you feel called to support this cause, you can make a donation through my fundraising page at pmc.org, click donate and enter my PMCID: LC0289., or search for my name, Linda Chateauneuf. Alternatively, you can send a check made out to the Pan-Mass Challenge directly to me (contact me via DM). Thank you for considering supporting my efforts. 

I once heard a cycle coach say, You don't have to ride - You get to ride! Together, we can bring hope to those fighting cancer. Please consider even $5 if you can.         Thank you - thank you. #pmc2025                        With much gratitude and appreciation,                                               Linda A. Chateauneuf
