I ride to raise money to find a CURE!

I will bike 186 miles again for my 9th riding year with the PAN-MASS CHALLENGE, which will be the last year of the Sturbridge to Provincetown route.  I have raised over $87K  in the past 8 years as well as 10 years as a volunteer for PMC and supporting riders of Team Lick Cancer.   

When your beautiful friend Denise loses her fight to lung cancer, after never smoking a day in her life, you ride! I will fundraise, train, support my friends and family and be grateful for the work that is being done to find a cure!

Riders from all over the world will raise funds for the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute! Last year the event raised 75 million dollars. While that sum is staggering, more funds are needed.

Your donations to my ride have made a difference in the lives of my friends Maria, Elizabeth, Donna, and Jean, who can proudly say that they are cancer survivors. Sadly, I also ride in memory of my sister-in-law Sam Tofanelli, her sister Deb, my cousin Diane, Denise and for all those that have been affected by cancer.

I participate because I have a passion to make a difference and to find a cure for cancer. I am asking my community to do their part in supporting me again through their generous donations. 100% of rider-raised revenue goes directly to support the cause. This is one of the many reasons that make the PMC a truly special event.

The PMC raises more money for charity than any other single event in the country, over ONE Billion donated to Dana-Farber Cancer Institute! This success is the result of a lot of people riding for, and caring about, a cure. I've made a personal commitment to ride PMC 2025 and raise $11,000.00. I hope you can help me achieve this significant goal.

Many hugs and a very large thank you for your donations. The following is a link to my donation page http://profile.pmc.org/PA0066
