Ride To Conquer Cancer

Support My Ride to Conquer Cancer - Fourth Year!

Hello All,

James T. here.

Welcome to my Personal Page!

On July 8-9, 2017, I will be riding my bike for the 4th consecutive year from Montreal to Quebec City (250 km) as part of the "Ride to Conquer Cancer". My Team is 'Vigi 4 Cure'! Last year our team biked the whole way in terrible rainy, windy weather (headwind to make it that much more challenging) – so this year we are optimistic that the sun will shining brightly, with a nice cool breeze every so often! This is the 6th consecutive year that Vigi4Cure (Vigilant Global) is supporting/sponsoring this event and I am proud to say that I will be riding along side them once again.

So I need your support. In order to ride, I must raise at least $2500.00. Please support me by donating at my donation page. Note that all donators will receive a tax receipt and all donations can be anonymous. Now I know some of you may have already donated or donate to other causes so I completely understand if you are unable to donate. However, I appreciate everyone's help and support no matter how big or small the donations are. Every dollar counts.

Last year, the ride raised $4.4 million dollars for cancer research, of which Vigilant raised $60,000.00. This year Vigilant's team has a big goal of $75,000.00 and we are excited to reach that goal with the help of people like you!

The money we raise for The 2017 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. Contribute to this Year's history-making event with a donation. Funds raised in the 2017 Ride to Conquer Cancer will support breakthrough research, exemplary teaching, and compassionate care at the Jewish General Hospital and throughout Quebec. Funds will be used to support research and new technologies in the areas of molecular diagnostics, functional imaging, biomarkers, molecular target discovery and validation, and advanced targeted radiation therapy, oncology, rehabilitation and nutrition and cures & treatments for Cancers like; Leukemia, Pancreatic, Lung, Brain, Breast, and Prostate Cancer, etc.. but more importantly, to improving the quality of life of patients and their families, and bring increased hope to the patients and families who are on the front lines of the battle against these diseases.

That's why I'm riding. This is why we’re here, to do something BIG about cancer. Because we know that cancer is too big a disease to ignore. It affects everyone, maybe you, me, our parents, kids, siblings or friends. Sadly, maybe all of the above. But by riding in this event we are doing something about it. We’re rolling closer and closer to the end of cancer. The cycling journey through Quebec’s countryside - that we are embarking on to fight cancer will be a challenge in a number of ways, but with my bike, my helmet, and your generosity, a real impact will be made! In other words, our epic ride will accelerate the conquest of cancer. It’s an awesome triumph in a physical sense and emotional as well.


So DONATE generously now! Or even better.. JOIN OUR TEAM's QUEST AND RIDE with us! 

On my donation page, Just click on the "DONATE NOW" button at the TOP, and follow the steps.


Thank you all in advance and again I appreciate everyone's support!
