Miles4Miles, a parade-style bike event, will take place in Shain Park at 1 p.m. on Aug. 26, during the Birmingham Bike Festival.
Created by Beaumont oncologist Richard Keidan, M.D., the ride is in honor of Miles Levin, a former patient of Dr. Keidan’s, who passed away five years ago shortly after his high school graduation. Funds raised from the ride will benefit the Miles Levin Pediatric Hospital Fund at Beaumont to help families with children fighting cancer and the Miles Levin Nepal Foundation for Health and Education, providing children in Nepal access to health care, public health and educational facilities. Money raised will be matched by the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals.
No entry fee is needed for the Miles 4 Miles ride at 1p.m. To make an individual or team donation, visit http://www.crowdrise.com/miles4miles
