Cycle Oregon family fundraises for childhood cancer

PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) -- Ten years ago Jim Stumpf hopped on a bike to ride hundreds of miles in the name of children fighting cancer -- and he hasn't looked back since.

"My thought was if these children can go through what they battle every single day and still come out with a smile on their face, that this old guy could go out and fundraise for a great non profit, Candlelighters," Stumpf told KOIN 6 News.

Candlelighters helps children with cancer and their families, supporting them both financially and emotionally.
