This October, I’ll be cycling 350 km in 5 days across Laos to raise funds for Mimosa, the association I’m proud to be part of (ww.mimosamatters.org).

Our goal is to help fund the purchase of a MyLab E80, a state-of-the-art diagnostic machine by the Institut du Cancer de Mougins, in the South of France.

This incredible equipment allows for the early detection of prostate cancer, giving men the best possible chance of survival.

Prostate cancer has hit far too close to home for comfort. It's a quiet, often invisible enemy that affects so many men — our husbands, fathers, brothers, partners, friends.

I’m raising funds not just because it’s personal, but because early detection can save lives — and we now have a chance to have such life-saving equipment available in our community.

This ride is for all the men I know!

Your support means the world to me. Every donation, no matter how big or small, counts - it’s incredible how quickly it adds up!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Love to all,

Marilen
