PMC Kids Bike Ride For Cancer

Beth Rapaport, Neighbor

The Pan-Massachusetts Challenge is an annual bike-a-thon that raises money for cancer research and treatment at the Dana Farber Institute through its Jimmy Fund.

This year throughout 28 towns in New England over 6,000 children ages 3-16 will participate in PMC Kids Rides. Since 2005, PMC Kids Rides has collected over $3 million to help find a cure!!

The program engages youth in philanthropy and teaches them the value of working for the benefit of others. The ride also promotes athletic fitness and physical activity among youth.
