Ride for Roswell

Team Skoden, Indigenous Teams, and Native Riders

It is that time of year again! Teams and individuals are raising funds for the Ride for Roswell.

This year members of the Center for Indigenous Cancer Research and the new Center for Indigenous Cancer Services have joined efforts by creating, Team Skoden! Our team is comprised of Indigenous employees at Roswell Park along with friends and family members. We will be riding the 10-mile route on June 25th, 2022.

Our goal is to raise $10,000!

Donations made to Team Skoden will go directly to the Center for Indigenous Caner Research and the Center for Indigenous Cancer Services at Roswell Park.

Making a donation is easy. Just follow or click the link below to safely and easily donate online.

Checks can also be made out to “The Ride for Roswell” with “Team Skoden” in the memo line and collected by a “Team Skoden” member.

If you are a member on another team or organized a team, there is an option to designate your team’s support to the Center for Indigenous Cancer Research and Services Fund at Roswell Park. By doing so, the support helps fund internship opportunities, outreach, research, and cancer care services—among, with, and for Indigenous communities.

Please email whitneyann.henry@roswellpark.org who will reply with a Fund Designation Application.

You are an important member of our team in the fight against cancer and we hope that you’ll consider supporting us and other Indigenous teams throughout our Territories, Native urban landscapes, and across NY.

Together, we can make a difference!
Nya:weh!
