Welcome to Keith's Personal Page
I am participating in the Pan Florida Challenge in honor of my brother Kevin Stangle.
Kevin fought a courageous battle against cancer. Kevin was able to ring the bell at the cancer center which represents being cured of cancer in January 2023. After 4 months, sadly, the cancer returned with a vengeance. My brother knew he was dying as he continued his battle until June of 2023, when he was called home to our God the Father.
I am asking Kevin's friends and family members to support me in a 62 mile bike ride to fight cancer. Together we can take a negative and turn it into a positive one. We can help find a cure for cancer through research. Please donate to this cause. Just follow the link attached, and whatever you can donate is greatly appreciated.
Cancer touches nearly everyone. Consider these facts:
- According to the World Health Organization, maintaining a healthy diet and increasing physical activity is an important approach to cancer control.
- A cancer diagnosis can place undue financial burdens on patients and their families. Many patients and family care-givers need to alter their employment status, resulting in potential lost income and loss of insurance coverage.
- According to CancerCare, 70% of patients reported financial hardships because of cancer-related expenses. 50% of patients cut back on grocery expenses because they couldn't afford to buy food and pay for treatments.
- In just nine years, Pan-Florida Challenge has provided over nine million meals to hungry children, providing healthy buidling blocks for their future.
This April, I will join hundreds of other riders who are all committed to fighting cancer. I will endure physical pain so I can help those who need it the most. Just $25 will provide nutritious cancer fighting foods to a hungry child for a month. $100 will help sponsor education programs that teach healthy eating techniques. Gifts of all sizes will support research and education at partner organizations including Moffitt Cancer Center and Cancer Alliance of Naples. Whatever you can give will help - it all adds up!
We can fight this - together. I thank you, and thousands of people in need will thank you, too.
