Cycle for Survival is taking place across 16 cities this month. 100 percent of every dollar raised goes to research led by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. Cancer survivor Kiersten Bartlein shares how she was directly impacted by this initiative.
"Being only 22 when I was diagnosed--it can feel a little isolating," said Bartlein. "Finding a community of other cancer patients who have gone through what I went through is invaluable."
To date Cycle for Survival has raised $170 Million towards rare cancer research led by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.
