Thousands of cyclists recently biked more than a million miles for the annual @PanMass Challenge, which has helped fund more than half of all cancer drugs approved by the FDA in the last five years.
It is celebrating $1 billion raised since it started: “The winner is all of us.”
Every year, we see how the @PanMass Challenge community continues to make a lifesaving difference through the events of PMC Ride Weekend. The dedication of the PMC community makes the advanced cancer care & research provided by @DanaFarber possible for all patients. #PMC2024
