My name is Olivia and I am participating in Cops for Cancer for which local police officers and emergency services personnel will ride 1200km from one end of the Island to the other - all to support local children and families living with cancer and beyond. 

 I started raising money for Cops for Cancer last year with my rider, Chris Van Swieten of Victoria Police Department. Last year we raised almost $3000 in cash and online donations from a lemonade stand, and this year we are hoping to make more. 

 I personally have benefited from Tour de Rock and have spent time at Camp Goodtimes and participated in other fun activities they have held. I have been fighting for more than 4 years with a brain tumour and am continuing this fight for myself and other friends I have made along the way.

This cause is very close to mine and my families hearts. We long for a day when no child is affected by pediatric cancer. 

The money raised from this event will support the Canadian Cancer Society in fueling new pediatric cancer research discoveries and sending 600 kids each year to Camp Goodtimes, a medically-supervised recreation experience for children and teens affected by cancer and their families.  

Please make a donation on my behalf and help me reach my fundraising goal! Donating online is secure and it saves the Canadian Cancer Society money by reducing administrative costs. 

Every donation takes us one step further to pedal our way to end childhood cancer. Because one child with cancer is one child too many. 

Thanks for your support!
