Jim Calhoun Cancer Challenge Ride and Walk 2011

www.cigna.com | NBC Connecticut Jim Calhoun Cancer Challenge Ride and Walk - As presenting sponsor of the Jim Calhoun Cancer Challenge Ride and Walk, CIGNA helped raise awareness and funds in the fight against cancer.

This year, we asked cyclists and walkers why they support the Challenge and what it means to them. We heard many touching stories - everyone was riding or walking for someone they knew affected by cancer. This video shares some of the many stories.

Team CIGNA raised more than $20,000 to help fund cancer research. Nearly 100 employees participated in this year's challenge led by CIGNA CEO David Cordani.

Proceeds benefited the Carole and Ray Neag Comprehensive Cancer Center at the University of Connecticut Health Center and Coaches vs. Cancer, a program established in 1993 by the American Cancer Society.
