Fundraising Commitment:

Team Tony Cancer Foundation’s mission has never been more important. A cancer diagnosis is one of the most challenging, stressful, anxious experiences in life. Our Gran Fondo Sarasota event is a way for all of us to come together to raise funds and support fighters, caregivers and others facing cancer. Don’t let cancer gain ground. Cancer hasn’t stopped. Neither can we!

There is no fundraising minimum, however we are encouraging each participant to set a personal goal of $100 or more to fight cancer.

All fundraising money, including matching gifts, must be postmarked on or before November 24, 2024. Cash and check donations can be mailed to our office at the address below:
