Last year we raised over $80,000 USD in the quest to FCANCERUP (In the five years that we've been working on this campaign, we've raised over $250K) and this year we want to break that. Up for raffle is an exclusive FCANCERUP Evil Wreckoning clad in nothing but the best and a host of other prizes.
Donate what you can and know that 100% of the money goes directly to the 501c3 non-profit Young Survival Coalition. Doing something good while getting a chance to win some sweet prizes… a win-win situation!
What you can win:
Grand Prize:
An Evil Wreckoning that's specially built to generate resources and raise awareness of this epidemic and to help cancer victims.
This bike is supported by and is loaded with: • Fox: 36 with Kashima coating and custom pink decals + Transfer seatpost. • Shimano: XTR Trail 1x11 group with XT 11–46 Cassette • Pro Components: Tharsis carbon bar, Tharsis stem, saddle, grips, and seatpost. • Enve: M70 wheelset w/ XT Boost spacing hubs and custom pink graphics • Evil: Wreckoning – in your choice of available sizes.
For every $5 donated between 9–25–17 and 11:59pm (PST) of 10–15–17, you will earn one chance to win this bike and other prizes. So if you donate $25 that is five chances at a bunch of prizes.
The winners will be selected from a magical spreadsheet using random.org & will be notified by e-mail.
We will ship worldwide… Customs fees and other applicable taxes will be the winner’s responsibilities.
100% of Your contribution goes to the YSC which will: • Fund support and education programs for young women affected by breast cancer. • Help support YSC’s mission to ensure no young woman faces breast cancer alone. • Raise awareness that young women can and do get breast cancer.
Alright, since there appears to be some debate about research, funds, and how all of this works i'll break it down as I'm close to the gentleman who started fcancerup, and have helped with the last 2 campaigns, and brings everyone together to build this bike and raise money. My friend takes raised money and moves it all to young survivors coalition, whose mission is to provide awareness and support (be it direct, group, lobbying or legislative) to women diagnosed with breast cancer who are under 40. A group underserved within the current medical and support systems. FCANCERUP is merely the conduit for building the bikes, and getting raised money to YSC. plain and simple. This isnt some massive bloated org paying CEO's millions of dollars. This is a small grassroots group founded by 3 survivors didnt see themselves represented in traditional cancer support networks.
So, with all of that, can we kill the BS back and forth about what cancer is, how its caused and all the reasons research is a lie. Know that funds go directly to helping you sister, daughters dads and mom move forward during the fight of their lives and beyond
I wish we could get awareness for more than just breast cancer. I'm all for what this is and what it supports. Great idea and good on you and those three very strong, very brave women, and all those involved.
My brother has had a brain tumor since he was three. I never see anything spring any other kind of cancer, just pink ribbons everywhere. At a certain point it's hard not to resent how marketed it is while other concerns seemingly get ignored.
I hope those three women are alright. Thank you again for what you're doing
@LoganKM1982: Maybe statistically a lot more people get breast cancer per year and maybe it's much easier to test for. A part of the message with these things is always to go get tested.
I'm so sorry for the condition of your brother, but maybe you could start a grassroots effort yourself?
Maybe a stupid question, but: Do I have to click the "I want to receive communications from..." button in order to be contacted? Or will they get my information through paypal?
@adrennan: I looked up what PRO was slang for on Urbandictionary.com, were you going with "prostitute"? I couldn't figure out which definition you're using.
Donated but then got an error going back to original page from the 'thanks this window will now close' but didn't close so I did it and then got error about not completing.
Great cause so keep the cash even if I didn't get entered!!
I love the bike and the lottery seems like a good way of raising money. But in Europe I've never heard of this foundation YSC. I'm always careful to whom I donate money since some foundations sometimes have shady backgrounds.
Based on last year there is a 1:16,000 chance of winning.
52 percent of people diagnosed with early-stage lung cancer live for at least five years after diagnosis. The five-year survival rate for people diagnosed with late-stage lung cancer that has spread (metastasized) to other areas of the body is 4 percent.
This fundraiser is awesome! But breast cancer has all of the good fund raisers. Literally hundreds. My mother in law is fighting stage four pancreatic cancer. We are finding out that this terrible cancer with a 6% survival rate has very little funding for research. It's not given the same media attention or funding by a long shot. Who do I need to talk to so we can get a fundraiser like this going for pancreatic cancer research?
I have a question regarding the raffle entry. Was I entered if I received an email saying "Please retain this letter for income tax purposes. Young Survival Coalition is a tax exempt organization as described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code; EIN 13-4057685. No goods or services were received in exchange for your generous gift of $XX. made on 10/15/2017 ."?
To be best of my knowledge raffle tickets are not eligible for donation receipts, and since I'm Canadian I can't benefit from an US registered charitable donation.
ALL OF YOU CARM YOUR ARSES DOWN. ITS FOR A GOOD THING AND A GREAT SPEC BIKE. IF YOU DONT LIKE IT GO PUT YOUR MONEY DOWN ON A PINT AND SEE YOUR RETURN ON THAT. IT WONT HELP ANYONE AND YIU GET FUCK ALL BUT A BAD HEAD FROM IT.
My likelihood of winning any of these is looking to be less than the chance a citizen of the mighty USA's vote is to decide a president, but totally worth it...even if this doesn't have the same potential nuclear outcome. Anyways - way to go Evil, Pinkbike, and fcancerup.com for bringing the community together to support a solid cause!
@golden-g: except this cause goes to primarily young women and their families fighting breast cancer. Not to research, curing or ending cancer. The fact that you guys get so blinded by your opinions that you fail to see who and how raising money here benefits people fighting for their lives reminds us all how shallow, self absorbed and stupid we can be.
Donating with no real hopes of winning this incredible prize, hoping for a cure to this shit disease is enough motivation! Cancer can go f*ck itself! (I apologize for my language)
I already have a Wreckoning. My bid, other than to support a good cause is to score one of those Gopros. How about you just send me the Gopro now and improve the chances for everyone else?
tried to donate several times, location Austria, browser Chrome version 61.0.3163.100 every time I try log in to paypal an error appears - any idea how to fix that?
I donated via PayPal, said it didn't work, then got message from PayPal saying I sent them money... So I guess it worked? Either way good cause... Bitchin bike.
Want to beat cancer we got to beat the system that is keeping us down. Teflon from non stick pans and BPA's in our water. GMO crops that are sprayed with cancer causing round up. Even good old wood smoke more cancerous than cars because trees are such great toxin filters. We can never beat cancer but we can beat the system Stop buying paper plates anything from Lilly Killer Monsanto or any company that profits from death. Then run out and get a Tesla(if you can afford it) and go off the grid with their solar roof package.
On their fb page they said within a week from the end of the raffle, but it seems like they had some delays. Would be suprising if it takes more than a week more.
There is a known cure for cancer... it’s a plant based, whole food diet. Not advertised because drugs are such a money maker. Also not advertised because the meat ‘Protien’ industry owns the drug companies. Proven facts. Do the research for yourself. My aunt had cancer, went on plant only based whole food diet and is cancer free. No drugs. -no lies. Swear on my life! The fats in all animal based products is also what causes diabetes. The fats essentially clog our cell walls preventing sugars and other nutrients from being processed properly, thus causing diabetes. Type I is a little harder to explain. Some other time.
But hey, $5 to not win one of these amazing prizes? I’ll do it for the rush.
How did I get downvoted to the below threshold comments? Sharing good news that there is a known cure for cancer? The first hand experience of a family member not being another statistic? Phfft. Geeze guys!
What are your credentials and where can I find your peer-reviewed research? This is groundbreaking! Let me guess - big pharma isn't letting this get out, right?
I hope you're able to join the rest of us in reality at some point.

Cancer is a billion dollar 'industry' which concentrates on a cure and not preventive measures that enact safe eating and drinking habits. We live in such an oil dependent society, petroleum has shown to be carcinogenic to humans and even develop as far as a cancerous tumor. There is a cure for cancer and it's called Cannabidiol and TetraCannabidol. Wake up sheeple!
@zede: Bob Marley died of melanoma if I remember correctly. I'm saying there is quite literally a cure for cancer but it's 'illegal' and a social taboo that inflicts nonsensical affiliations and stereotypes that perceive it as something negative
@squarewheel: Ok I'm gonna dumb it down for you guys : if the cure for cancer was THC, a guy that spent his whole life smoking, eating, living in THC wouldn't die from cancer. You get it? People these days...
@bartb: @golden-G: You two do realize that theres more to cancer than just the cure right. Like theres actual support networks that help people and their families fighting cancer and these support networks rely on fundraising. But go ahead keep being dickheads about this. The reason theres a bike being offered up above comes with a story of loss to someone close to the build of the bike.
Im so f*cking tired of you do nothing, low hanging fruit motherf*ckers shitting on any good and difference in this world people try to do. Don't like this, don't donate. move the f*ck on with your life.
@blackohio: Easy there, idiot...I'm all against f*cking cancer as much as the next person and with having family that have died from it and currently have it...it's a bitch to deal with and I'm just tired of people trying to promote this push for a cure, which by now seems like a pretty large marketing gimmick with a side of support to the actual (see pink ribbon business)
I'm not going to start a pissing match with some f*cktard over this. Don't like my comment, flag it downward and move on. I have as much of a right to an opinion as you, like it or not.
@blackohio: follow the money. Oncology is a multi billion dollar business. Cancer 'research' is a complete FRAUD!! There is no profit in a cure. There is however never ending profit in ensuring people continue to get sick and require 'treatment'. You can call me whatever you want. The fact is that I am correct. I have lost many friends and a few family members to cancer over the course of my life.
@Golden-G: yeah cancer is a lie from the government, chemtrails are real, earth is flat, we all have microchips in our brains, vaccinations give you diseases, 11/9 was an inside job, and we should believe you because you read these shits on theveryrealabsolutetruth.com ? I sell logic and occam a razors for cheap if you're interested
@zede: imbecile. 9/11 was an inside job. Cancer can be avoided by adopting a natural (organic for you sheep) plant based diet, avoiding many common chemical compounds, and generally removing one's head from one's anus. Not sure about the other stuff you're blabbering on about. Try watching the movie 'What The Health' to help extricate your cranium from your rectum. Let me know if you need any further help...
@Golden-G: yo it looks like Fcancer actually just gives all their proceeds to another organization called Young Survivors Coalition. fcancerup.com/donate
@Golden-G: Oh, you're serious about watching "What the Health" ???
Oh wow, I'm a Vegan and that was seriously one of the most propaganda filled and one sided films about the food/health industry I've ever seen. It's a terrible representation of living a Natural Plant based life.
Please don't ever push it on anyone as a reason to be Vegan.
@Golden-G: yep. used to give money to Cancer Research but never again. Not only will they never 'find' a cure, Cancer Research test on animals as well. Otto Warburg and Royal Raymond Rife to name only two pretty much discovered cures
@MuddyFoxCourierComp: Yes it is true that they use animal models to predict the effects of a tumor however it would be impossible to develop any sort of drug that would be any effective or safe by just testing in a Petri dish due to the complexity of the disease. I can agree with you to a point that the media and even some universities oversell this fact of a one cure to save them all, however many actual professionals have already adopted the notion that we need a multidisciplinary and specialized approach to "curing" cancer. As an example this amazing organization that donates to help networks which is another important step in the cancer treatment.
Ok, I'm in. But speaking for all of mountain biking they would have sold a ton more tickets had it been an E-BIKE bike giveaway.
Their 501c status, and financial records are all available on charity navigator ( www.charitynavigator.org/index.cfm?bay=search.summary&orgid=8540 )

Also, the one word that would have benefited from being typed in full caps he actually wrote in lower case..
A paradox? Irony? An oxymoron perhaps?
I never can tell
Cool bike, even comes with two seatposts. Even better cause.
