My Story

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

Why? Because right now, over 1,700 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.

Jacob

    “I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. But what I do know is that I have a very particular set of skills. Skills that I've developed over many years on the internet. If you tell me who you are, that will be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you. I WILL find you. And I will thank you.”

    “Oxford Dictionary describes 'bike riding' as "formed within English, by compounding." And like 'bike riding,' the success of this campaign is formed by the success of a goal from both donations and bike rides. I am more than delighted to help with at least one of those things. Go Jacob!”
