Dear Friends and Family,

On August 6th and 7th, I will participate in my ninth Pan Mass Challenge (PMC), a 163-mile bike ride across Massachusetts. The PMC is the largest fundraising event for the Jimmy Fund and Dana Farber Cancer Institute. 

I will be riding the PMC in memory of my cousin Perry who passed away in 1999, after a short, yet courageous battle with cancer of the small bowel. This October will be 11 years and it is still unthinkable that Perry, a marathon runner and tri-athlete, lost his life at the age of 32.

I know many people in the area ride in the PMC and your charitable dollars may not be as plentiful as they used to be, but I could really use your help.  The minimum to participate in the event is $4,200. It’s easy to contribute online. Click on the Donate to my Ride link.

Your donation to these events is tax-deductible and would be greatly appreciated. 

If you prefer, you can make checks payable to “PMC-Jimmy Fund” and mail to me at Heidi Siegal, 230 West Newton Street, Unit C, Boston, MA 02116.

Please help me make a difference in the fight against cancer so that we don’t have to lose any more loved ones to this dreaded disease.

Thank you for your support.

Heidi
