"When I was diagnosed with hodgkin's lymphoma 7 years ago, 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. #UCancervive" - Ryan LaFontaine
