On August 5th and 6th, I will be riding in my 11th Pan Mass Challenge (PMC). For those of you who have donated in the past, I can't thank you enough. I really appreciate your support. The PMC, for those who are unfamiliar, is an annual 2-day, cross state cycling fundraiser for cancer research and treatment. My team will be riding from Wellesley to Provincetown and every dollar raised will go directly to the Dana Farber Cancer Institute in Boston to support the talented doctors, researchers, and staff in their mission to cure cancer.
My first PMC ride was in 2008 when a small group of family and friends started Team Fitz in honor of my uncle, Kevin Fitzgerald, who lost his battle to cancer in the fall of 2007. In the years since that inaugural ride, we as a team have experienced more painful losses from this unforgiving disease, which has only inspired us to continue riding. Since cancer hasn’t stopped, we haven’t stopped. We once again ride this year and will continue to do so for as long as it takes to beat this disease once and for all.
I hope I can count on your support
The PMC raises more money for charity than any other single event in the country, $900 million since 1980 and $69 million in 2022 alone! This success is the result of a lot of people riding for, and caring about, a cure. And because every penny matters, 100 percent of your donation goes to Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.
I've made a personal commitment to ride PMC 2023 and raise $6,000.00. I hope you can help me achieve this significant goal by contributing to my ride.
Every donation helps, no matter how small, because every penny goes directly towards critical life saving research and treatment. I humbly ask for your support.
Thank you so much for your consideration.
