Graham's Two Wheels to Sunnyside (Calgary to Emma Lake Cycle)
I’m raising $10,000 for RMHC Canada.
Ends: December 31, 2018
Hi, I'm Graham! Welcome to my 2018 Fundraising Page. I live in Calgary, Alberta with my wife, two teenage boys and our dog. We love to travel to Emma Lake (north of Prince Albert), SK every summer to visit with our extended family! In early August, I'll be on a self-supported cycling trip from Calgary to Emma Lake. My route will also take me to down to beautiful Waterton National Park, Writing-on-Stone Provincial Park, and then up through Medicine Hat, Leader, Outlook, Saskatoon, Prince Albert, and Shellbrook. Exciting! My Alberta ride will fundraise for the Alberta Children's Hospital Foundation - Youth Mental Health Program. As I ride through Saskatchewan, I will be fundraising for the Ronald McDonald House Family Room at the Victoria Hospital, Prince Albert. Why am I Cycling and Fundraising for the Family Room? In 2016, I was cycling with the National Kids Cancer Ride from Vancouver to Halifax when we stopped in Saskatoon and met a very special Prince Albert family with a young son (Mason) diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In 2017, I cycled with the National Riders from Lake Louise to Alberta Children's Hospital and once again met amazing, courageous Mason and his mom. Mason had spent several months in Calgary for treatment, and stayed at the Ronald McDonald House. It's stories like these that show the importance of the work the Ronald McDonald House Charities is doing in Canadian communities. They were with this family every step of the way. Incredibly inspiring. The Family Room at the Prince Albert Victoria Hospital is supported by this very kind family. I am very blessed to learn about this facility from this family and help to fundraise this summer! I thank you from the bottom of my heart for any donations you can make to help the running of the RMH Family Room in Prince Albert.
