Today, Kathy Scanlon registered to complete the Pan-Mass Challenge (the “PMC”), a two day, 192 mile bike ride from Sturbridge to Provincetown on August 3 and 4 in support of cancer research at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute. Kathy, and all of the PMC riders, have committed to raise $5,000 to support cancer research. Dana Farber’s research and clinical trials benefit our region, including the patients treating at cancer centers throughout Connecticut that implement Dana Farber’s clinical trials and access its non-proprietary research.
Last year, the PMC raised $56 million for Dana Farber research, raising more money than any athletic fundraising event in the country.
We will be planning some great fundraising events in the coming months, and in the meantime, please check out Kathy’s PMC profile and consider supporting this important cause.
This year will be my fifth PMC ride. I'm a proud supporter of the PMC because it is leading a charge to beat cancer. In fact, last year 100% of rider-raised revenue went directly to support the Jimmy Fund and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute's tireless commitment to finding a cure.
