About 6 years ago my good friend Evan Levy lost his battle to childhood cancer. He was the cutest, funniest, most energetic kid. He had gone through so many things that a young kid should never have to experience, but yet he did everything with a huge smile on his face. Ever since he lost his battle I have become very involved in several organizations to help other kids just like him.

In addition, exactly a year ago my little friend Angelina lost her battle to Neuroblastoma which she had been fighting since she was 3.5. I had the privilege of taking her on a trip to Disney through the partnership of two amazing organizations (Ohr Meir & Chai Lifeline). We made memories and friends that will last forever!

This is why I have chosen to bike 35 miles this summer to raise money for Camp Simcha. Camp Simcha is a remarkable overnight camp that provides seriously ill children with a vacation from sickness, restoring their spirits and renewing their determination to fight. Every year this camp offer 430 children a chance to forget about illness and just be kids again. I will be biking into camp on Thursday, August 5th, 2021 to support all the kids just like Evan and Angelina who suffering from pediatric illness. My objective is to raise $5,000 by then, and I hope you will help me reach this goal.

Any small amount will go a long way! All donations are tax deductible!
Let’s do this!
