The PMC has been a part of my family's life for a long time. For years, my Mom, brothers, and I have made the trip to the Lakeville rest stop to cheer on my Dad and all the dedicated PMCers on their way to Bourne. This year, I am very excited to ride in the PMC myself for the first time, riding the two-day 162-mile route from Wellesley to Provincetown, and raising funds for pediatric brain tumor research!
I am so proud to ride for our PMC Pedal Partner, Willa Mooney. Diagnosed with an optic pathway pediatric brain tumor in her early years, Willa has handled chemotherapy treatments with tremendous perseverance and strength. Today, Willa is an active lacrosse and basketball player and inspires everyone around her with her joy and positivity. I am so excited to ride this August in support of Willa!
As a pediatric brain tumor survivor myself, I have experienced firsthand the life-changing impact of the work done at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, and I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to give back to the institute and the people who gave me so much. Supremely talented and dedicated researchers like Dr. Mimi Bandopadhayay, Dr. Rameen Beroukhim, and their teams at DFCI and The Broad Institute have made incredible progress in pediatric brain tumor research over the years, drastically improving patient outcomes for countless children and their families. Donations through the PMC directly support this research and have a crucial impact in pushing forward the science and delivering better outcomes for patients.
Every dollar donated through this page will go directly to the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and support researchers like Dr. Mimi and Dr. Rameen. Thank you so much for your support!
