“Both my wife and daughter are survivors of rare cancers, and for that I am immensely grateful. Our good fortune is the direct result of research into new treatments that took place prior to their battles.
“I wanted to find a way to contribute more to Cycle for Survival beyond participating in the events, and being part of the Leaders Circle has awarded me that opportunity. From a financial perspective, I know that my contributions are providing a predictable and critical revenue stream for Cycle for Survival and MSK. But it’s more than that. The Leaders Circle is a community that comes together to build and learn. That adds an element of satisfaction that amplifies the impact I know we’re making with our donations.”
