Welcome To My 2021 Scenic Shore Fundraising Campaign!

Thank you for supporting my efforts to fund lifesaving research for blood cancer patients. Some of my teammates are able to ride because of treatments developed with funding from The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Your donation makes a difference!

My goal for 2021 is to raise $10,000. I have kickstarted my fundraising by donating $500. Please join me in my efforts to reach this goal.

This is the 9th year of my  bike team, the Lymphomaniacs. We are 120 riders strong, the largest team and the #2 fundraising team of the Scenic Shore Bike Tour. Thanks to generous support from people like you, we have raised more than $800,000 since 2013. 

We ride in honor and memory of many cancer patients. Their names are printed on the back of our BELIEVE t-shirts as in the photo above. If you want me to ride in honor or memory of someone you know, please leave their name(s) as a comment when you donate.

Thank you for your support!

More about what your donation supports:

LLS's continued advancements over the years, are responsible for the blood cancer survival rate doubling and tripling; in some cases, the survival rate has even quadrupled.

And many LLS supported therapies not only help blood cancer patients but are now used to treat patients with rare forms of stomach and skin cancers. They're even being tested in clinical trials for patients with a range of cancers including lung, brain, breast, pancreatic and prostate cancers. LLS funded drugs are now being tested for patients with other non-cancerous diseases like Diabetes, Rheumatoid Arthritis and Multiple Sclerosis.

We really are changing the face of blood cancer!

All donations are greatly appreciated and are tax deductible. They'll not only support LLS research but patient services, advocacy, public and professional education, and community services as well.

On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere I thank you for your support!
