[read more] Once again (July 9-10), I, along with thousands of others, will cycle throughout Quebec's countryside in two days and hope to make a real difference in the fight to conquer cancer.
I've agreed to raise at least $2,500, but I've set my personal goal to $5,000, and I need your help to do that.
The money I raise for The Enbridge Ride to Conquer Cancer will help fund cancer research and care at the Segal Cancer Centre at the Jewish General Hospital and throughout Quebec. Funds will also be used to support new technologies in the areas of molecular diagnostics, functional imaging, biomarkers, molecular target discovery and validation, and advanced targeted radiation therapy. There are few cancer centers in the world where a strong combination of researchers and highly skilled and motivated clinicians exist under one roof. The Jewish General Hospital is such a centre and that’s why we need your support.
Use the link on this page (below) to go visit my webpage, and please take the time to support me. Please keep in mind the commitment I'm making to end this heartbreaking disease and the personal efforts I'll have to make to accomplish this.
When I say "heartbreaking," here's what I mean: according to the Canadian Cancer Statistics, 171,000 new cases of cancer and 75,300 deaths from cancer occurred in 2009. The information also shows that over 45% of men and 40% of women will develop cancer in their lifetime and 1 in all 4 Canadians will die of cancer. That's why I'm riding - to do something BIG about cancer. I hope that you will share this incredible adventure with me by supporting me in my fundraising efforts, and be part of a history-making movement to conquer cancer.
Thank you in advance for your generosity!
Sincerely,
Jason
