C2C4C México hasn't added a story.
Acerca de la Carrera Continent 2 Continent 4 Cancer
Del 2 al 13 de diciembre, los empleados de Bristol Myers Squibb participarán en el evento 'Continent 2 Continent 4 Cancer' (C2C4C), recorriendo casi 1.500 km desde Pucón hasta Puerto Varas en Chile. Su objetivo es recaudar fondos para las organizaciones latinoamericanas de lucha contra el cáncer que son miembros de la UICC. Bristol Myers Squibb donará hasta USD50,000 a la UICC para apoyar los esfuerzos de recaudación de fondos de los ciclistas. Desde 2022, se han donado más de 125.000 dólares a organizaciones benéficas de América Latina a través de la carrera C2C4C.
El C2C4C inaugural se celebró hace diez años en los Estados Unidos con el nombre de "Coast 2 Coast 4 Cancer". Los ciclistas de Europa se unieron al esfuerzo en 2016 para el "Country 2 Country 4 Cancer", Japón en 2021 y América Latina en 2022 para el "Continent 2 Continent 4 Cancer".
C2C4C se ha convertido en una tradición establecida y una ocasión importante en Bristol Myers Squibb, con más de 14 millones de dólares donados a nivel mundial para la investigación del cáncer al día de hoy.
¿Quiénes son los ciclistas?
Los participantes en el desafío C2C4C en América Latina son ciclistas principiantes que se han comprometido a realizar cinco meses de entrenamiento intensivo para completar su parte de la carrera.
Este año son más de 55 los empleados que pedalean en América Latina y su motivación para participar y avanzar en la investigación contra el cáncer es personal. Algunos pedalean en honor de quienes han perdido la vida a causa del cáncer o luchan actualmente contra la enfermedad. Otros han sufrido ellos mismos un diagnóstico de cáncer.
Este año, el recorrido será más plural e inclusivo que nunca, ya que participarán empleados de siete países: Argentina, Brasil, Chile, Colombia, México, Perú y Estados Unidos. Los empleados de Brasil participarán por primera vez. Juntos, sus kilómetros crearán más recuerdos para los enfermos de cáncer y sus seres queridos.
Por qué recaudar fondos para organizaciones contra el cáncer
El cáncer se encuentra entre las principales causas de muerte en todo el mundo. Cada año, hay 18,1 millones de casos nuevos y 9,6 millones de muertes relacionadas con el cáncer en todo el mundo, y estas cifras van en aumento.
Esta es la razón por la que Bristol Myers Squibb ha elegido apoyar a la UICC y a sus miembros en su misión de reducir la carga global del cáncer e integrar el control del cáncer en la agenda mundial de salud y desarrollo.
Anime a sus colegas, familiares y amigos a donar, ya que el cáncer nos afecta a todos. Cada equipo monta y recauda fondos para los miembros de la UICC.

About the Continent 2 Continent 4 Cancer Ride
From 2-13 December, Bristol Myers Squibb employees will participate in the ‘Continent 2 Continent 4 Cancer’ (C2C4C) event, riding nearly 1,500km from Pucón to Puerto Varas in Chile. Their goal is to raise funds for Latin American cancer organisations that are members of the UICC. Bristol Myers Squibb will donate up to USD50,000 to the UICC to support rider fundraising efforts. Since 2022, more than USD125,000 have been donated to charitable organisations in Latin America via the C2C4C ride.
The inaugural C2C4C ride was held ten years ago in the US as the ‘Coast 2 Coast 4 Cancer’. Riders in Europe joined the effort in 2016 for the ‘Country 2 Country 4 Cancer’, Japan in 2021 and Latin America in 2022 as the Continent 2 Continent 4 Cancer .
C2C4C has become an established tradition and significant occasion at Bristol Myers Squibb, with more than USD14 million donated globally for cancer research to date.
Who are the Riders?
The participants in the C2C4C ride in Latin America are novice riders who have committed themselves to five months of intensive training to complete their portion of the ride.
There are more than 55 employees cycling in Latin America this year and their motivation to participate and advance cancer research is personal. Some are riding in honour of those who have lost their lives to cancer or are currently battling the disease. Others have experienced a cancer diagnosis themselves.
This year, the ride will be more diverse and inclusive than ever, with employees from seven participating countries: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Peru and the United States. Employees from Brazil will be participating in the ride for the first time. Together, their miles will make more memories for cancer patients and their loved ones.
Why raise funds for cancer organisations?
Cancer is among the leading causes of death worldwide. Each year, there are 18.1 million new cases and 9.6 million cancer-related deaths worldwide, and these numbers are growing.
This is why Bristol Myers Squibb has chosen to support the UICC and its members in their mission to reduce the global cancer burden and integrate cancer control into the world health and development agenda.
Encourage your colleagues, families and friends to donate, as cancer affects us all. Each team rides and raises funds for members of the UICC.
