BOSTON (AP) -- This year's Pan-Mass Challenge raised $75 million for cancer research and treatment, putting the cross-state charity bicycle ride over the $1 billion mark since 1980.
"This year's PMC gift marks an incredible milestone in its 45-year history," PMC founder and executive director Billy Starr said. "We have demonstrated the impact cycling and fundraising together can achieve, but our work is not done. We're setting our sights on the next billion as we pedal 'Closer by the Mile' toward a world without cancer."
