In Their Own Words:
Why We Ride, Run and Rally to Leave Cancer Behind
“EMF Distance Challenge provides a meaningful way to stay connected with an impactful mission and make a tangible difference in the fight against cancer.”

Morgan Stanley
"Unfortunately, every year I seem to have a new story of someone I know who is being hurt by this terrible disease. The work we do to support cancer research today leads to progress so that future generations avoid a cancer diagnosis, and have better medication and treatments to fight it successfully if diagnosed.”
