SUMMARY:2021 Pat's Pedaling Pack 100k Bike Ride
DESCRIPTION:Thank you to everyone who made the 2021 Pat’s Pedaling Pack 100K Bike Ride and Golf Outing a tremendous success. Thanks to our riders and our numerous volunteers\, ride sponsors\, and golf sponsors. See below for a list of our wonderful sponsors. Everyone enjoyed what we believe was our best event ever and together we raised an incredible $240\,000! This was a tremendous result! \nThese funds are very important to the mission of Pat Mac’s Pack as we continue to fund critical brain tumor research and provide assistance directly to the families of young children who are battling cancer. The need right now is greater than ever due to the effects that the coronavirus has had on many families who have a child with cancer. These families have been experiencing extraordinary financial challenges\, which unfortunately often occur when you have a child facing such a serious illness. Some of the issues include loss of employment due to Covid or having to leave a job to provide around the clock care for a child patient\, the inability to pay rent\, mortgage\, utilities\, or cover rising medical bills and travel costs to and from the hospital. \nRecently\, Pat Mac’s Pack has reached out and made direct donations to several families. Please take a moment to read some of their stories to better understand Why We Ride:   \nVC – a boy age15 has Osteosarcoma and Li Fraumeni syndrome. The syndrome is also present in the mother impacting her ability to work since 2020. Donations are helping support household rent\, expenses and special classes for VC. \nBN – a boy age 7 has Medulloblastoma brain cancer. Mom has had to leave work to care for him and his 3 other siblings. With loss of income\, medical bills have been mounting. Donations will help with bills\, child care and a tutor for BN who is missing long periods of school. \nAA  – a young boyl only 27 months old and diagnosed with high risk AML requiring multiple inpatient chemo treatments and is scheduled for a stem cell transplant. Both parents have had to take unpaid leave from their jobs to take care of AA and his sister. The family has needed much assistance and our donation addressed funds for groceries\, utilities\, and overdue rent. \nKW age 14 has Osteosarcoma and he will need an amputation. He lost her father to COVID-19 and his mother was intubated for over a week in the hospital due to COVID and is in recovery.  Due to her medical condition\, the sudden loss of her husband\, and the need to take care of KW\, mother has been unable to work. Donations are providing financial assistance to help with multiple bills and are helping the family cope with the difficult road ahead. \nThe money raised through ride donations and ride sponsors have made a direct and meaningful difference for these and many other families. \nIn addition\, Pat Mac’s Pack is continuing its strong support of the brain tumor program at Lurie Children’s Hospital. In November 2021\, we donated $250\,000 to Lurie Children’s Hospital toward important research into finding better treatments and eventually a cure for pediatric brain tumors. \nWe look forward to you joining us as we continue our mission with our 9th annual Pat’s Pedaling Pack 100K Ride that will take place on Friday June 24th\, 2022 \n2021 Pat’s Pedaling Pack Sponsors: \nChampion Sponsor – $10\,000 or more \nTed and Katy Ahern \nPresenting Sponsors – $1000 or more     \nBuona Beef and Rainbow Cone\nBeverly Bike & Ski – Paul Weise\nCornelia & Michael Bessie Foundation\nElizabeth M.
