Priyanka Bhasi / 2024 Team Fundraising
Help me support Texas 4000 for Cancer by making a donation - small or large - as it directly helps run this non-profit organization which supports cancer patients, hospitals, and research. Additionally, we also are the largest annual charity bike ride in the world; I’ll be biking 4,500+ miles to Alaska!
TLDR: I’m raising $4,500 and riding 4,500 miles for cancer, $1= 1 mile ridden. Please donate!

About Priyanka Bhasi
Hello! My name is Priyanka Bhasi, and I am currently a sophomore at UT Austin studying Biochemistry on the pre-med track, in the Polymathic Scholars program, and taking on the Social Inequality, Health, and Policy certificate.
Outside of Texas 4000, I am a part of Kappa Rho, a female pre med honors society, Kesem, an org similarly dedicated to children whose parents are affected by cancer, and SEAL, which promotes English and Spanish literacy to Austin elementary schoolers. Besides the academics, I like to bake a lot (please try the NYT’s espresso chocolate cookies), explore local Austin shops, food, and trails with friends, binge watch tv-series in any language, and play cards (teach me a new game).
Backstory: Though the purpose of Texas 4000 is cancer, my main reason of joining this organization was my mom's illness. When I was younger, my mom suffered from an illness not as common as cancer, but one that was just as much impactful to my life. She was bedridden during part of my elementary school years from a serious antibiotic side effect that damaged her joints. The days of going to school at the back of my mom’s car, attending family functions, and eating my mom's home cooked lunches were sparse. Now, fortunately, after years, my mom can go on those bike rides and daily family strolls, but the illness took a toll on a large part of my childhood.
However, from my late grandfather's stomach cancer, stories from friends and family, to Camp Kesem, and my research, I hear and see how devastating cancer can be. It can persist much longer than someone expects or can be the end that no one sees. Because of this, I think the amount of support required to continue the fight against cancer is also insurmountable. Being apart of this fight to support all those around me who did or have cancer, I feel the need to continue aiding this progress. So, please donate and spread the word!
