I'm Riding For

We are all riding as we have family and friends who have been impacted by cancer.

Having witnessed firsthand the devastating impact of cancer, I am profoundly moved by the immense suffering it inflicts. It is truly a cruel experience to watch a loved one fade away, and my heart goes out to anyone who has endured this pain. This experience has instilled in me a passionate desire to support research and raise awareness.

My Story

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

Because right now, cancer is the largest single killer of children from disease in Australia – over 700 children are diagnosed with cancer every year and sadly, 3 die every week.

Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.

And so I am riding and raising funds to support the Children's Medical Research Institute to continue their work into the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and finding a cure for childhood cancer.

Please support my challenge by making a donation through my fundraising page to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Together, we can save little lives.

Thanks for your support.

Matthew
