I'm Riding For

Breanna Plourde

Breanna Plourde

Each August I ride in Memory of a young, beautiful soul....Breanna Plourde. Her family lost her February 4, 2020 at the age of 27. Breanna courageously fought a battle against osteosarcoma. Although the sun has set on Breanna, the memory of that energetic smile, the love she had for others, the positivity she radiated, and the love everyone had for her will keep her memory alive with every sunrise.

My Story

27 Sep 2023

This is my 9th year Riding to Fight Kids’ Cancer with Great Cycle Challenge for SickKids Foundation.

The Great Cycle Challenge Canada is a national SickKids Foundation fundraising initiative held throughout August.

All funds raised go to support the work of SickKids Foundation to provide care, develop treatments and find a cure for childhood cancers.

Cancer is the largest killer of children from disease in Canada.

Today, over 83% of pediatric patients will survive their cancer. And every day the GFCC (Garron Family Cancer Centre) is coming closer to closing the gap between detection and treatment – between the ability to determine the genetic factors of cancer, and the ability to deliver faster, personalized, and more effective treatment options.

We are not just taking the fight to one type of kids’ cancer – our mission is to find a cure for all cancers to ensure Healthier Kids Have Brighter Futures.

Our Vision is a world without cancer where all kids are living life, not fighting for it.

Can You Help Me Reach My Goal??

My Legacy

Here's my personal impact over 9 years to fight kids' cancer and save little lives.

    This month I am riding 350km in the Great Cycle Challenge to Fight Kids’ Cancer.

    Every 2 minutes, a child is diagnosed with cancer. More children in Canada lose their lives to cancer than any other disease…

    Kids’ should be living life, not fighting for it.

    Your donation will support SickKids Foundation to provide care, develop treatments and find a cure for childhood cancer.

    Thank you so much. 🧡🙏🏼💙
