Please help support my 2024 Pan Mass Challenge Bike Ride. The PMC's mission is to raise funds for cancer research and treatment at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. 100% of every rider-raised dollar goes directly to Dana-Farber.
The mission of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute is to provide expert, compassionate care to children and adults with cancer while advancing the understanding, diagnosis, treatment, cure, and prevention of cancer and related diseases. As an affiliate of Harvard Medical School and a Comprehensive Cancer Center designated by the National Cancer Institute, Dana-Farber also provides training for new generations of physicians and scientists, designs programs that promote public health particularly among high-risk and underserved populations, and disseminates innovative patient therapies and scientific discoveries to our target community across the United States and throughout the world. Dana-Farber Cancer Institute's ultimate goal is the eradication of cancer, AIDS, and related diseases and the fear that they engender. Above all else, Dana-Farber makes a difference by relieving the burden of disease now and for the future through our research, clinical care, education, outreach and advocacy.
This year, I ride first and foremost in honor of my dad, who has lived with lymphoma since 2011. It remains active and requires treatment. I ride in honor of my friends and work collaborators around the world who are currently cancer, particularly breast and brain cancer. I ride in memory of friends and family members, and their friends and family members, who lost their lives to cancer but helped teach me the power of optimism.
Like last year, I will ride with Team Guts & Gore, led my my dad and stepmom. We are enjoying training and riding together, again. Like last year, I am fundraising $6,000 through my ride. Please help support my ride! 100% of rider-raised revenue goes directly to support the Dana Farber Cancer Center's tireless commitment to finding a cure. I am looking forward to a successful ride in 2024.
I hope you will consider contributing to the Dana Farber Cancer Center using my donation page (https://profile.pmc.org/MG0484). If you make an electronic contribution, you will receive a receipt via email. You can also send a check directly to the team (made out to PMC with team ID number on the check 35153-9) and I will send it in and request a receipt for you. The team has designated our donations to go to lymphoma research.
Thank you SO MUCH for helping to support my ride, raising funds in support of cancer research.
