Bikers Fighting Cancer (BFC) is a 501(c)(3) tax exempt non-profit charitable organization of motorcycle enthusiasts who help children with cancer. Started in 2002, the club has grown steadily, with chapters throughout the Pacific NW and West Coast.

    As an all-volunteer group, Bikers Fighting Cancer ensures that 100% of donations go to support the emotional and financial needs of children with cancer.

    Bikers Fighting Cancer members come from all walks of life, and volunteer their time and energy for the children we serve. Cancer doesn’t discriminate, and we don’t either; the BFC proudly accepts motorcycle enthusiasts of any gender, age group and ethnicity who have an interest in helping children with cancer.

    The idea for Bikers Fighting Cancer was born in Southern California when Patrick “Chemo” Healy was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. While going through treatments he met an extraordinary 11-year-old boy named Ray, who was battling a brain tumor. Ray told Pat he’d always wanted to be in a motorcycle club, and both decided there was no time like the present to start their own.

    Ray, who designed our ‘Ban the Grim Reaper’ vest patch and motto ‘Never Give Up,’ passed away at age 12 and was buried in his vest and BFC patch.

    Patrick Healy, a cancer survivor, is now National President of Bikers Fighting Cancer, and helps to get new chapters started and keep us focused on our mission to help children with cancer.

Cancer is the second leading cause of death in children, and the need for help is great.

One out of every 330 children under age 20 will develop cancer according to the American Cancer Society's publication, “Cancer Facts and Figures 2009.”
