We are proud to sponsor the Better Outcomes 2 team in the B.C. Ride to Conquer Cancer. A few from our office even joined the team in the 2017 ride which raised over $85,000.00 for the Dr. Michele Williams Oral Cancer Research and Education Fund at the British Columbia Cancer Agency. Although not widely known, oral cancer affects over 300,00- Canadians each year. Our team is keen to welcome new riders, donors, and sponsors each year.

In order to pay tribute to the actor Adam West who passed away from cancer in 2017, our team rode as Batman this year. Mr. West played Batman on U.S. television in the 1960’s. The bat themed outfits proved to be such a hit we are planning on repeating it again for the 2018 ride.
Dr. Alison Fransen has been the loyal support crew person for her husband’s Ride to Conquer Cancer. The 2018 ride will be their seventh year in the ride and over those years have raised over ninety thousand dollars. Cancer affected many family members, colleagues, and friends of theirs over the years and it is for them that they continue the fight.
