You're saving lives!

Every pedal stroke, every sprint, every moment you keep pushing yourself even if it feels impossible, isn’t only a personal challenge; it’s a spark of hope.

Every year, more than 52,000 patients trust Roswell Park with their cancer care. When you support IceCycle, you’re shaping the future of cancer care for every one of these people.

How your fundraising and donations change lives

Curing cancer takes a big investment in research and programs. That’s why fundraising and donating are crucial to finding a cure. When you fundraise for or donate to IceCycle, your funds turn into direct support for patients in Buffalo and beyond.

Research and Clinical Trials

Roswell Park researchers and clinicians are working together to bring the newest, most innovative treatments and technologies to cancer patients. They’re discovering cancer-fighting approaches we could only dream about 10 years ago. Donor support is fueling incredible, groundbreaking changes to the way cancer is diagnosed, treated and cured.

Quality-of-Life Programs

Roswell Park is committed to the care of the whole person. Our work doesn’t end at medical treatment, but encompasses the mental, emotional and spiritual wellness of our patients, as well. When you participate in IceCycle or donate to a participant, you’re guaranteeing Roswell Park experts can run Quality-of-Life Programs that help every patient and caregiver that steps through the doors.

Change the world with your community as we cycle for a future without cancer
