This August, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight cancer!

I have fortunate members of my family, like my father, that have benefited from cancer research and new developments in treatments so that they were able to beat it. I couldn't begin to explain how happy I am that he is cancer free.

Sadly cancer has also taken several of my close family members. I wish they could still be here but they were not as fortunate. I'm hoping some day cancer research will bring us to a point where these kinds of tragedies never have to happen.

This challenge focuses on fighting kids' cancer. It is hard to imagine how hard life would be with cancer at an early age so I would like to try and help fund-raise as best as I can.

If you can donate please do. If you cannot then please cheer me and everyone doing this challenge on for that extra bit of motivation to hit our goals.

Your support can change lives.

Thank you.
