I'm Riding For
Luna

We ride in honour of a beautiful little girl named Luna. At just 22 months old, Luna bravely battled stage 4 high-risk neuroblastoma—a cancer with a survival rate of just 50%. A coin toss. A few months ago, Luna tragically gained her angel wings. She is forever 3. Luna was - and is - deeply loved. Her spirit, her courage, and her light touched everyone who had the privilege of knowing her. We ride for Luna.
My Story
This October, I am taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer!
Because right now, cancer is the largest single killer of children from disease in Australia – over 700 children are diagnosed with cancer every year and sadly, 3 die every week.
Kids should be living life, not fighting for it.
And so I am riding and raising funds to support the Children's Medical Research Institute to continue their work into the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and finding a cure for childhood cancer.
Please support my challenge by making a donation through my fundraising page to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.
Together, we can save little lives.
Thanks for your support.
