I'm Riding For

We were lucky …. He survived. It was so incredibly hard and at times we never thought we would get through it. And yet here we are. Even though we felt very alone we were not. With people like you donating money, time, blood and platelets you can make a difference!

My Story

12 Aug 2026

We were one of the lucky families—our child survived cancer.

It was the hardest thing we’ve ever been through. There were moments we didn’t think we’d make it. But we did.

That’s why I ride.

I ride for the kids still in treatment. I ride for the parents sitting beside hospital beds, hoping for good news. I ride because we know what that fight looks like—and we know how much it means to have support.

Every donation—blood, platelets, time, money—makes a difference. It gives families hope. It helps save lives.

You may not see it firsthand, but we’ve lived it. And we’ll never forget what that support meant to us.

Thank you for being part of this. You are helping more than you know.
