Rider Story

Thank you for considering support for WOW V (W.A.R. on Wheels)! The fifth annual event kicking off on October 23, 2023, leaving from Washington DC and arriving back to St. Charles, IL on November 3, 2023 for a total of 967 miles and over 50,000 feet of climbing through the Allegheny Mountains!!

War on Wheels V- Climbing for the kids!

We do this to mimic the grueling aspects of children fighting cancer. The picture above is me with Megan Sporny, who after several relapses, learning to walk 3 times in her life lost her physical battle with this terrible disease June 1, 2023 at the age of 19. She was The Strongest...

To date in the previous 4 WOW rides, we have ridden over 5,000 miles!

The WOW team rides to help give the children and their families strength & courage. We ride to create awareness and to help fund research, we need more to be done to end pediatric cancer.

My daughter Madi survived an almost deadly 3-year battle against stage 4 Lymphoblastic Lymphoma at age 10. We are so blessed and thankful for this outcome as she enters her junior year at University of Missouri. We are also devastated to know so many children lose their battles. Although Madi survived, based on archaic treatments 50 to 60 years old, her and many of the survivors will face a lifetime of medical setbacks and secondary cancers. We need to do better.

Every single dollar donated to this ride is restricted to altering the outcomes of these diseases by funding cutting edge research hand-picked by Cal's Angels Board of Directors and Research Committee that I chair. Also, the entire ride is funded by Glen Galloway and therefore literally every penny of every dollar you donate gets deployed to save our children!! You will not find a better place for your donations than right here.

Please reward our grueling and painful efforts on the bike with donations to help future children diagnosed with the horrific disease. We are excited to announce our partnership with the B1G Ten Cancer Research Consortium (now coast to coast) along with other world class institutions to use the funds raised from our rides to continue clinical research for children.

Sincerely and Thankful

It's Cal's Angels mission to grant wishes, raise awareness and fund research to help kids fighting cancer. Your continued support helps us achieve our mission and we are grateful to every one of you.

Until we hear the words “There is A Cure for Cancer” we will continue to fight on behalf of these young warriors and their families. We ask you to join us in the W.A.R. on pediatric cancer… together we CAN make a difference!
