This summer thousands of riders will embark on planned or reimagined rides for the 2024 Pan Mass Challenge.
This year, I have registered as a virtual rider. Virtual riders fundraise for the cause but do not actually ride in the PMC. I am fundraising, but I will not be participating in the actual ride.
Over the past 17 years, you have helped me to raise over $169,000 for the Jimmy Fund. All money (100% of your donation) that I raise goes directly to cancer research at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.
Won't you join me by making a donation and a difference in the fight against cancer?
Many of you know that for 9 years (2007-2015) I rode the PMC in memory of my mother (and in honor and memory of other friends and family) who were on the front lines in the battle against cancer. In June of 2008, a couple of months before the 2008 PMC, Mom passed away from liver cancer. Since then, too many of my friends and their friends and families have been affected by cancer.
Now I participate as a virtual rider who raises money for cancer research at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.

If your company has a matching gifts program, please take the time to complete the paperwork and send it to the address above. Last year your generous employers matched over $1K of your donations! It could be even more, so please ask your HR department about matching gifts.
Thank you again for your generous support!
Together, we can help find a cure for cancer!
