Dear Friends:
I hope all is well with you and your family during this summer heat of 2024! We are very excited to be riding back on PMC Sturbridge to PTown this year. I am excited to report that this is my 10th PMC. This is a HUGE year for the PMC, as we all strive to contribute to the more than $1B total fundraising over the 45 years of the PMC. Such an amazing event and total funds raised!
I am very fortunate to be in a position to be able to ride in this event and give it everything I have to raise funds for all those impacted by cancer. We all have family, friends and loved ones (including my beautiful wife, Janice) impacted by cancer and it will require a complete team approach to beat cancer.
August 3/4 weekend I will continue my summer tradition of participating in the Pan-Mass Challenge. I am fortunate to be part of a great and growing team known as Team PRECISION for Kids (Team PFK)! Every 100% $$ raised by our team will go directly to Dr. Katie Janeway and her amazing work in research and creating therapies based on a patients genome/DNA make-up. She is a world renowned doctor and researcher and she has been able to receive PMC funding for her groundbreaking work done at Children's Hospital and Dana Farber Cancer Institute.
To give you a tangible example of where our team funds will go, it costs roughly $5,000 per patient to test the DNA of a childhood tumor so they can effectively target medicine to treat and cure with PRECISION!! Our team has raise more than $1.2 MM for this great casue and continue to hope for more donations.
On behalf of my family and our team, we thank you for your support!
