Pan Ohio Participants: Join ACS CAN for Ohio Cancer Action Day on May 7, 2024

American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network Ohio – ACS CAN is asking Pan Ohio Hope Ride participants to attend Ohio Cancer Action Day on Tuesday, May 7, 2024, and hopes we’ll bring our bikes in a show of support for the Cleveland Hope Lodge! 

Join with other cancer advocates, survivors, and caregivers from across the state to speak with Ohio lawmakers about making the fight against cancer a top priority. Ohio Cancer Action Day provides an opportunity for you to share your cancer story, ask lawmakers to improve Ohioans’ access to cancer care through biomarker testing and copay accumulator legislation, and rally support for a request of $170,000 from the capital budget for structural updates to the Cleveland Hope Lodge. 

Pan Ohio cyclists are invited to gather (time/location details pending) for a short group ride to the Statehouse around 10am for an ACS CAN capital budget press conference. Even if you can’t join for the full day and speak with your legislators, you can make a statement just by riding your bicycle to the Statehouse steps.

Keep an eye on our social media for more Ohio Cancer Action Day details, including ways to get involved even if you can’t join us in person!
