Bikes Fight Cancer raises $450K for local charities

In Hampshire County tonight, a monumental check presentation to benefit the Western Massachusetts cancer community. Local organizations supporting cancer patients and families are now on the receiving end of $250,000. Among those benefiting, Mass General Cancer Center at Cooley-Dickinson, Cancer Connection, CHG, Cancer House of Hope, and Camp Rising Sun. The funds were made possible by the record-setting 2026 Bike Fight Cancer Ride, which raised more than $450,000 It's an absolute game changer for us. We are a very small organization, and yet we offer entirely free programs and services for people with a cancer diagnosis and their caregivers, and we rely on no federal funding whatsoever. It's all community support. So thanks to Bikes by Cancer, we're able to help so many more people. Tonight they also recognized top fundraisers and collected toys for children receiving treatment at Connecticut Children's.
