ING Americas

🚲 🌃 ING participated in another year of Cycle for Survival, the official rare cancer fundraising program of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK), last month in NYC. A dozen Americas colleagues participated in hour long riding sessions, spinning the night away with peers from all over the city to raise money to beat rare cancer. This year, over $34 million was raised - helping the program surpass $400 million raised since its inception in 2007 and we couldn’t be more grateful for the opportunity to contribute to this cause.  Hear from those who participated on what they thought: 🚴 “Participating in Cycle for Survival was an incredible experience with the ING team. The event was filled with great people, energetic music, and an inspiring atmosphere, all for a phenomenal cause. It was truly an awesome experience all around!” - Javier Jimenez 🚴 "It has been a privilege for me to join once more ING'S team in this year's Cycle for Survival for rare cancer fundraising program of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. I cycled for 2 hours in the spirit of scientific research and hoping that the funds raised will help find much needed cures. As the event had a Tribute Wall, we honored our colleagues who sadly passed away in 2024: Paul Galvez and Justin Model." - Claudia Oancea 🚴 "It was my first Cycle for Survival, and it definitely won't be my last! The event was incredibly inspiring and so much fun, especially with the ING team. We raised much-needed funds for a cause that's very close to my heart. The energy, enthusiasm, and shared purpose in the room were absolutely infectious. Who wouldn't want to rock out on a bike for an hour to support loved ones battling rare cancers?" - Amy Brown
