We spoke with Clip In 4 the Cure Director of Community Development LeighEllen Blevins about the high-energy team cycling event benefiting cancer initiatives at Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center and Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt. LeighEllen shared her personal connection to the cause and why supporting patients, families, researchers and care teams affected by cancer is so meaningful to her. We also discussed the powerful stories behind the event, where the money raised goes and how the Nashville community continues to rally around those facing cancer.

From riding solo or forming a team to fundraising, volunteering or cheering from the sidelines, LeighEllen explained the many ways people can participate—regardless of their cycling experience. She also offered a look at what attendees can expect from this inspiring, high-energy event and how every rider, donation and act of support helps move us closer to a world without cancer.
