Supporting cancer care in Atlantic Canada. Learn More.

I’m facing the fight against cancer!

What if we could destroy cancer using a patient’s own immune system? What if we could cure at least half of all eligible blood cancer patients? Yes, I said cure.  When you support my ride today, we’re one step closer to making these bold aspirations a reality.

On Saturday, September 23, 2023, I’m riding alongside a community with one common goal: to transform local cancer care at the QEII Health Sciences Centre.  

This year, we’re going to be bolder than ever before…our BMO Ride for Cancer community is all in! With your support, we’ll establish Atlantic Canada’s first-ever CAR-T therapy lab, a state-of-the-art space dedicated to genetically modifying a patient’s own immune cells (T-cells) to fight their cancer with unparalleled personalization and accuracy.

This revolutionary and lifesaving immunotherapy is a final lifeline and potential cure for certain blood cancer patients who’ve tried all other treatment options.

Benefits include faster treatment times, minimizing disruption to families’ lives, more clinical trials, and, most importantly, offering a potentially lifesaving treatment option to certain blood cancer patients who otherwise would not survive.

By supporting my ride, you are joining a community of champions funding the fight against cancer today and for future generations.

If you could save someone’s life, why wouldn’t you?

50K to 75K!

Ok so we decided to give ourselves a bigger challenge! We are now riding a distance of 75K! Training starts Easter weekend. Stand by for photos of our ride (and maybe a little Easter egg hunt at the end). xoxo Ali

Welcome!

I am so excited to be participating in my first Ride for Cancer! I don't think there is one person who hasn't been impacted by cancer. I certainly have. I watched my beloved Grandpa, as brave as he was battle it. Luckily, he didn't suffer very long. But cancer deprived my family and I of more time with him. What I wouldn't give to hear his laugh (which usually turned into a snort) one more time. 

My 95 year old Grandmother herself had battled colon cancer for most of her later adult years. As the disease continued to ravish her body over and over again throughout the years, she emerged swinging and fighting and conquering. What a warrior! Her resiliency will be something I admire for the rest of my life. 

So on September 23rd, I'm going to ride 50K  for my beautiful grandparents. For my Gramps, who lost his battle but kept his sense of humor right to the end, and for my grams, who is a cancer warrior and continues to inspire me daily. 

I hope you come along on this journey with me. The furthest I have ever ridden at once is 27kms, so your encouragement is greatly appreciated!

xoxo
