Dear scott,
I made a dedication to my mom -
who inspires you?
As the 2009 Tour De France comes to an end, I wanted to say thank you for the overwhelming support I’ve received. While I didn’t win the Tour this year, my return to professional cycling was never about the bike – it was always about improving the lives of the 28 million people around the globe who are living with cancer today.
While I was racing in the tour our movement did just that: We needed to add 30,000 names to the World Cancer Declaration in order to secure a matching donation to fight cancer – and we blew that target away, reaching 85,000 signatures in just a few days!
It’s a big victory, but our ride has only just begun. Starting today, we need to renew our commitment to a world without cancer by building an even stronger movement.
Will you help us by creating a dedication for someone who inspired you to fight cancer and share it with your friends and family? More than 25,000 people have created these powerful personal pages and through them inspired 50,000 people to join our movement. Can you do the same? It only takes a moment:

The idea behind the dedication book is simple: I’m asking that you honor someone who has inspired you – a friend, a child, a caregiver – by creating a simple page that can inspire others to add their name to your page and our movement. We'll collect these pages into the world's largest dedication book and deliver them to leaders around the world. By sharing the stories of those who are fighting or have fought this disease and those they have touched, we’ll make a strong case for greater attention and resources focused on the global fight against cancer.
For me, making a dedication was easy – it was for my mom. When I was diagnosed with advanced testicular cancer, my mom was there to listen to me, cheer me on and remind me I wasn’t alone. No one was more invested in my survival. She was my biggest ally and my greatest advocate.
Has someone inspired you? Tell us about them, it only takes a minute and can make a big difference:
