Spinning your wheels has never felt so good…when you’re cycling with Team NC to raise funds for local cancer care!

Once again, the College is gathering a team for Niagara Health Foundation’s Big Move Cancer Ride.

The 17th annual fundraising event in support of the Walker Family Cancer Centre will take place on Sunday, September 14. NC’s Big Move team, along with hundreds of Niagara residents, will take off from White Meadows Farms on a 14K, 25K, 50K or 75K bike ride through scenic Pelham. All routes end back at White Meadows Farms, where riders and their families can enjoy a BBQ lunch, live music, and ceremonies.

NC’s Big Move co-leads Joanne Maltby and Mike Pasquale

For the seventh consecutive year, Joanne Maltby (Associate Director, Global Customized Training & Consulting) and Mike Pasquale (Associate Director, Strategic Procurement) will be leading the College’s team. The pair encourages the NC community to get involved by joining the team or donating to help the team reach their $5,000 fundraising goal. Last year, a group of 20 NC riders proudly raised over $11,000 in their blue and white cycling jerseys. Since 2019, the team has raised an incredible $51,000, earning NC a spot in the Big Move’s Platinum Peddlers Club that recognizes exceptional individual and team fundraising efforts.

Whether you are riding in celebration of a cancer survivor, in support of a cancer patient, or in memory of a loved one lost, riders and donors can take pride in knowing that every dollar raised supports local cancer care.

Anyone can join NC’s Big Move team and all cycling levels are welcome.

If you have questions about joining the team, please reach out to Joanne ([email protected]) and Mike ([email protected]).
