Support My Ride to Conquer Cancer™

Thank you for visiting my personal page. The Ride to Conquer Cancer benefiting the Princess Margaret Hospital is a 200 km cycling journey from Toronto to Niagara Falls. I am asking for your contributions to help in the fight against cancer. The funds raised will be used toward breakthrough research, teaching and patient care at The Princess Margaret Hospital.

Cancer is a reality that is close to home for many of us. My grandmother passed away from cancer almost 11 years ago, and being with her through the last few months of her life was one of the reasons I chose to pursue medicine as a career. My grandfather has also not been well this past year. The courage and resilience that my grandmother showed during her fight with cancer, and that my grandfather continues to show from day to day, is truly an inspiration. Today, I am involved in research at The Princess Margaret Hospital in the division of Gynaecologic Oncology. The contributions you make truly do make a difference in the lives of individuals affected by cancer.

My dad completed the ride last year, and we will be riding together this year (or he'll be ahead and waiting for me at the finish line?).

Please note: this is a no obligation, confidential request and all donations will receive a tax receipt. Your email address will not be used or sold for any other purposes. Donations go directly from you to the charity.

Thank you in advance for your help!
