All funds raised in the Ride Inside stay in Manitoba to make a difference for kids with cancer, including those facing some of the most difficult to treat cancers. This includes initiatives like PROFYLE.

PROFYLE is a multi-cancer centre research and treatment project, which CancerCare Manitoba is part of. It focuses on providing personalized care for children, adolescents and young adults, up to age 29, with rare and difficult-to-treat cancers. It provides patients who haven't had a positive outcome with conventional cancer treatment other options.

CancerCare Manitoba Foundation has committed to raising $1 million over five years, in support of PROFYLE.
