I believe that Children are our future!! It’s horrible to see a family member or friend go through cancer. But to see a young person battle this terrible disease breaks my heart. Let’s raise funds for research so that no one has to go through this . Funds raised through The Ride support cutting-edge research and compassionate, innovative patient care programs at Roswell Park Cancer Institute. Together, we can help find cancer cures and save lives. At our annual gift card raffle/ beer blast, we feature lottery bags with pictures of our loved ones on the front. Some we have lost, some are still fighting and some are in remission. A day after this year’s ride, (2023), I was having brunch and a gentleman who worked at the establishment stopped by our table to chat. He saw the Ride for Roswell hat and wanted to tell us his story. He was Diagnosed with brain cancer 5 years ago. He has been receiving EXCELLENT care from Roswell and couldn’t say enough about the Doctors and workers there When he left us, he asked if he could give us each a big hug. He was so grateful that we were helping to raise funds for research. That’s all I needed to hear. EVERY PENNY MAKES A DIFFERENCE!! Thank you all for your support. Even though I received that grateful hug- it was meant for all of us who have donated
