Our History with Cycle for Survival

In 2018, Gabe Grunewald attended her first Cycle for Survival event in New York City. Not only did she cycle on a team, but she also spoke at two indoor cycling events and shared her rare cancer story. She left those events feeling inspired, hopeful, and dedicated to return each year.

“YOU ARE MY PEOPLE! Raising millions of dollars for rare cancer research through a group fitness activity? Sign me up — I’ll be here with a Brave Like Gabe team every year from now on, you can 100% count on that.” - Gabe

Gabe’s enthusiasm paved the way to our annual participation in Cycle for Survival. Each spring, we offer Team Brave Like Gabe participation and fundraising in multiple locations around the country. We believe this event makes a huge difference as most rare cancers have zero FDA-approved treatments and little dedicated research funding.

Our participation in Cycle for Survival directly impacts our grant-making efforts. Gabe received personalized cancer treatments and participated in an immunotherapy clinical trial at Memorial Sloan Kettering. Additionally, MSKCC was one of the first research grantees of the Brave Like Gabe Foundation in 2019.

Presently, our commitment to fund rare cancer research has led to a multi-year grant of $600,000 at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. This grant is funded in part by Cycle for Survival fundraising. The researchers, Dr. Carol Brown and Dr. Fiyinfolu Balogun with co-investigator Dr. Debyani Chakravarty are studying Endometrial Carcinoma in Black Women and Pancreas Cancer Genomics in Minorities.
