I'm Riding For
Ellie
Kids should be living life, not fighting for it. This year, I am dedicating my goal to my friend's 8 year old daughter Ellie, who in September of 2024, was diagnosed with Lymphoblastic Leukemia. She has undergone many chemo sessions over the last 22+ months. Ellie is dealing with this, with courage, determination, strength and a sense of humour and lots of love and support from her family, friends and dedicated healthcare team. She is certainly a brave young lady! Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.
My Story
I'M BACK! PLEASE SUPPORT MY GREAT CYCLE CHALLENGE - RIDING TO FIGHT KID'S CANCER. This August, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!
Why? Because right now in Canada, over 1,400 children are diagnosed with cancer every year, and it's the biggest killer of children from disease in Canada. It's so heart breaking to see children having to go through all of that suffering. This is such a great cause and I sure hope they find a cure soon. "
Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.
I am again dedicating my goal to my friend's 8 year old daughter Ellie, who last year, was diagnosed with Lymphoblastic Leukaemia. She has undergone many chemo sessions over the last 22+ months. Ellie is dealing with this, with courage, determination, strength and a sense of humour and lots of love and support from her family, friends and dedicated healthcare team. She is certainly a brave young lady!
Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.
Your support will change little lives.
Thank you.
