Cancer is hitting people at a younger age. Kate Middleton is a recent “great” example. She is only 42. She is not alone. I was not much older when I was diagnosed with cancer. My wife, Patty, has also been treated for cancer. The list of friends who have fought cancer is even longer. Research is attacking this disease. But research must be funded in order to progress.
I am asking you to help me support cancer research at the Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center. In many areas they are on the cutting edge of research. Many novel techniques have come out of their research. But much more needs to be done. Cancer can be beat. But only if targeted research is funded and clinical trials are started. We, together, can get this done. Each dollar raised during this current fundraiser will leverage about $23 from external grants. What a great opportunity to leverage your donations.
Roswell has an annual fundraiser called the Ride for Roswell. Last year it raised oner $5,800,000 in direct donations. So far this year, it has raised $1.2 million. This year, the event takes place on June 22, 2024. It is one of the largest cycling fundraising events in the US. I am participating in this event. Will you support me in this effort? Any amount donated will help. I believe that I am the only John hunter participating.
