I'm Riding For

In Memory of Ethan Tucker

Ethan was a great warrior! He inspired so many with his determination! He fought fiercely for a long 5 years. During this difficult time he wrote a book and Graduated high school. Ethan passed away December 31, 2022 from Medullablastoma. So heartbreaking, No parent should have to bury their child. Let's raise money to help kids cancer! Thank you!

My Story

8 Aug 2025

This August, it will be my 9 th year in taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer! You must check out my page. My past history of kms ridden, and money raised.

2016 -261 km $1 025.50

2017-436 km $1 585.01

2018 - 323 km $2,323.00

2019 - 501 km $1,209.55

2020 - 401 km $1,664.24

2021 - 301 km $1,204.17

2022 - 139 km $1,230.00

2023 - 201 km $1,176

Total km ridden - 2,561

Funds raised- 11, 452

Why? Because right now, over 1,400 children are diagnosed with cancer every year, and it's the biggest killer of children from disease in Canada.

Kid/ teenagers should be living life, not fighting for it.

So I am raising funds through my challenge to help and support SickKids Foundation to allow them to continue their work in developing treatments and finding a cure for childhood cancer.

Please support me by making a donation to give these kids the brighter futures they deserve.

Your support will change lives.

Thank you.

“Spending some time in the radiation unit at the General Hospital, Ottawa. It's just heartbreaking when they wheel kids through for treatment; their parents following in their wake. This shouldn't be happening and I hope some day cancer will be history. Thank you for doing this every year Heather.”
