This year celebrates the 11th anniversary of the Fireflies West Charity Tour starting on September 26th in Mill Valley, California and finishing in Los Angeles covering approximately 550 miles and over 32,000 feet in elevation.

As some of you know, cancer is very close to my heart. The disease has affected so many people in my life from family to friends to friends of friends. The ride isn’t exactly easy but as I’m suffering along the way the people who I’ve lost to cancer or the people who continue to battle cancer or those who have kicked cancers a$$ will be my inspiration. The pain I will feel won’t compare to the pain they’ve been through.

The purpose of my email is to reach out to ask for a donation…a little something or a big something or whatever you can contribute would be amazing. The money raised goes to the City of Hope which is a cutting edge organization and hospital committed to saving lives. I personally know people who were treated at the City of Hope so I can testify they do change and save lives.

I imagine all the endless possibilities of everything we can accomplish together. I believe there IS a cure. EVERY study shows that the more people that ban together for a common cause the quicker ideas transform into reality. Whether you live in Florida, New York or anywhere across the world, the research being done at City of Hope is and will continue to directly affect the type of care you receive at your local physician’s office.

Thank you so much for making a difference in people's lives. 

Love,

Damian
