LAF's mission is to enhance the quality of survival of those diagnosed with cancer. The Ride For The Rose's is one of the events that the LAF produces, designed to raise awareness of their mission, involve interested parties in survivorship causes and the fight against cancer, and raise funds to support their mission activities.
