My Story

31 Jul 2025

This August, I am again taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer. Many of you have supported this fundraiser in the past. Thank you for your donations.

Over 1,400 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.

Donations will help these kids and support SickKids Foundation to continue their work in developing treatments and finding a cure for childhood cancer.

Your support will help to change little lives.

Thank you.
