About Team Believe

Mission Statement

Team Believe is a student-run, not-for-profit organization dedicated to raising money in support of cancer research.

We might be students; however, we strongly believe in our abilities to make a difference now, and we hope to inspire others to do the same.

To raise money and awareness for cancer research, we will traverse the North American continent by bicycle in the Believe in the Cure Tour 2007.

When someone asks what makes us consider undertaking such a seemingly impossible task, we reply with one simple answer:

We believe in ourselves, we believe in our cause, and we believe in the cure.

Belief - sometimes it is all we have. Ask a cancer patient what they believe in, ask their family, ask their doctor, ask the scientists who developed their treatment. They all believe in the same dream - that cancer will one day be cured.

We share in this dream, too. The journey towards the cure may seem long, but - as we hope to demonstrate by our journey - it is far from impossible.
One must only believe.

FAQ

How did you come up with this Idea?
Easy really - We are all extremists and attracted to this sort of thing, and we also love the idea of promoting a cause greater than ourselves. However, what really initiated it was that our team founder was touched by cancer again, and we all rallied around her idea for a way to fight back.
