Hello - I hope you are doing well! I am reaching out for your support for my 14th consecutive year riding my bike for the Pan Mass Challenge. I'll once again represent Team PwC on this big milestone fundraising year - $1 Billion raised for Dana Farber cancer research and treatment that is helping more people beat cancer every day. On Aug 3-4, we will celebrate together our commitment to help this impactful cause.
THANK YOU as always for your support over the years. I really appreciate your care and generosity, and it means a lot to so many people.
My ride this year will be the long route - two days and 192 miles from Sturbridge to Provincetown. I'll be riding again in memory of my dear mom Rose Kennedy, who left us in January, 2020, and my dad Paul Kennedy Sr. who passed in August 2021, coincidentally on Day 1 of PMC weekend that year. Mom and Dad were super enthusiastic supporters of the Pan Mass Challenge and Dana-Farber Cancer research, and I hope you can be too!
The PMC is a phenomenal cause focused on cancer research, treatments and awareness through the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. 100% of your donation goes directly to the Dana Farber Cancer Institute.
The Dana-Farber has made great progress and their work has proven critical to developing meaningful outcomes resulting in new cancer therapies. Consistently, each year the Dana-Farber researchers contribute to the development of many of the cancer treatments approved by the FDA for use in cancer patients. In addition, Dana Farber shares all of their research with the global medical community. Every dollar of your continued donations will help fund this critical life saving research.
For 2024, I will be riding (and hopefully still keep up with) the PricewaterhouseCoopers crew! I'm grateful to continue to be active with the PMC, as well as to be able to focus on supporting other charities in retirement. The PMC is a really special charity that makes such a positive impact for too many of our friends and family members struggling with cancer.
