Dear Family and Friends:
For a 4th straight year I will be participating in the Boston Hub on Wheels Citywide Bike Ride on Sunday, September 15th. As one of the “Hope Rides” for Boston Children’s Hospital, I do so to raise funds for its Pediatric Cancer Research Program.
As many of you know I’ve been associated with the Department of Dentistry of Boston Children's Hospital since 1972! Boston Children’s researchers don’t just improve cancer treatment—they introduce new chapters in cancer medicine. Your donation will help fuel this critical research aimed at improving and saving the lives of children with cancer, many of whom I've cared for during my many years of active clinical care.
Thanks to so many of you who have supported me in the past with your donations. On all three occasions I was the largest individual fund raiser of the event and recognized as such on the podium at the start of the race (see photos & article published in the Needham Times 9/20/2018 -

Once again, I don’t like to “go to the well too often”, but it's a great cause so I hope you'll consider supporting me once again with any size donation. To donate and/or if you'd like to ride with Team Needleman on September 15th, please click the team name at the top of my page.
Thank you in advance for your support!
Howard
