I'm Riding For

Katie H, Ben S and all other little warriors

Katie H, Ben S and all other little warriors

Katie Herron of Cambridge should be 14 this year. Instead she died at age 7 after a lifelong battle with cancer. This brave and sweet warrior will never be forgotten. I will be thinking of her on every ride this month 💜

My Story

5 Aug 2023

This August, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge across Canada again to fight childhood cancer and I would be grateful for your support. Cancer is the number one cause of death by disease of Canadian children. Over 1,700 children are diagnosed with cancer every year and more than 10,000 are in treatment . Kids should be living life, not fighting for their lives.

I am just one of more than 10,000 Canadians taking part in this cycling challenge to support ALL kids fighting cancer to show them and their families that they are not alone in this fight. All donations will support SickKids Foundation to continue their work in developing treatments and finding a cure for childhood cancer. Your support (big and small) can make a real difference to saving little lives. You could also join the challenge and ride to raise funds with me. Please reach out and connect to find out how to do that.

Thanks in advance,

Brenda
