"When I was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma in 2008, my world was turned upside down. Thanks to the unselfish acts of so many who came before me, I was able to beat my cancer. It's our mission to pay it forward and help raise funds so others can get the same chance I did to survive cancer. " - Ryan LaFontaine
