I'm Riding For
Maia
Maia, my Great Niece, is a wonderful young person. I am so proud of you Maia. You have tackled your journey with such a positive attitude and with courage and strength. Rock on!
My Story
This August, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!
Why? Because right now, over 1,400 children are diagnosed with cancer every year, and it's the biggest killer of children from disease in Canada.
Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.
So I am raising funds through my challenge to help these kids and support SickKids Foundation to allow them to continue their work in developing treatments and finding a cure for childhood cancer.
Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.
Your support will change little lives.
Thank you.
Mary

1st Week Complete!
7 Aug 2020I have 37% of my goal complete with 111 kms. done! The Great Cycle Challenge has been twofold for me personally: #1 Raising funds to support research into cancer that impacts children and supports kids who are sick. In a roundabout way it was my way to say to my Great Niece, Maia (in the picture with me),I want to show you I support you and other kids on this difficult journey. #2 Getting in shape!
