Scherer family builds a legacy of giving back
| September 19, 2025
“We want the Pelotonia mission to continue long after our journey through life is over. Including Pelotonia in our estate plan helps continue a mission that has greatly impacted my family,” Mike said.
Their commitment not only honors the journeys of Mike and his father but also looks to the future, driven by the hope that their son, and generations to come, will inherit a world without cancer. In 2021, furthering their dedication to cancer survivorship, Mike and Megan founded Worth the Wait, a charity that empowers young adult cancer survivors on their path to parenthood by providing financial support and educational resources for fertility treatments, adoption, and surrogacy. Through their planned giving, enduring support, and advocacy, the Scherers are ensuring that the fight against cancer continues, inspiring others to give back and build a legacy of hope and progress.
