I have two knives for sale to benefit the Jimmy Fund/Dana Faber Cancer Institute. I'm raising money for The Jimmy Fund through the Pan-Mass Challenge (more here: http://www unix.oit.umass.edu/~srobbins/pmc.html). The PMC is the oldest cycling fundraiser in the country and raises more money than any other athletic fundraising event in the U.S. It is also the most cost efficient, with 99 cents of each dollar raised going directly to the Jimmy Fund. The PMC has contributed more than $145 million to lifesaving cancer research and treatment at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute since 1980.
I will be riding with Team LEGS (Legs Eliminating Great Suffering). Team LEGS was founded by my friend Mike whose son Sam was treated in 2002 for cancer at age 3 at Children's Hospital in Boston. Sam is now doing well.
Team LEGS was assigned a pedal partner last year and was partnered with an unbelievably brave, tough and fun kid with a great family -- Jake Boudreau. Jake's fighting neuroblastoma. Recently it was found that the tumor is coming back and Jake has some more challenges ahead of him. He's in the best of care at Children's working with the research fellow who was sponsored directly by the Friends for Life Neuroblastoma fund.
