I am riding in Pedal The Cause this year in honor of my patients with blood cancers who are being treated with chemotherapy and stem cell transplants and in memory of my father and grandmother who both died of cancer. As an oncologist and researcher committed to finding better treatments and cures for cancer, I know how difficult the current therapies are on the patients and their families.
I am committing to a 52 mile ride for Pedal the Cause to help benefit cancer research at Siteman Cancer Center, where I am employed, and at St. Louis Children's Hospital.
Please consider donating anything you can to this worthwhile ride. While the suggested donation is $1 per mile ($50), there is no donation too small (or too large) to help us advance cancer treatments and eradicate these terrible diseases.
All of the funds stay in St. Louis to fund cancer research and every $ you donate (100%) goes directly to research!
