Pedal the Cause

Only a week and a half until the Pedal the Cause bike ride and there is still time to donate if you can.  Even though I have already met my pledge, I am trying to get to $2500 in donations.  Every cent brought in from donations go to research funding to Siteman Cancer Center with that amount over $45 million dollars!!!  As a result of the donations given to Siteman, the success of the funded research has brought in an additional $595 million in outside donations and grants.

Due to physical reasons, I reason, i am scaling the ride back to only 30 miles, so hopefully not disappointing anyone.  This year I will again be riding with my daughter in memory of my father and neighbor Nick Porter and in honor of my dear friend Erin who is KICKING CANCERS ASS!!!  We also ride for all other people inflicted with this horrible disease!!!  

Last year was the first year I watched their Inspirational Program and was blown away by the people walking in who were going through treatment and those in remission.  Their strength and courage and seeing their smiling faces, brought tears to my eyes.  Knowing a large number of them were and had benefitted for the donations brought in be Pedal the Cause is the reason I put my old and out of shape body on a bike to try and do my part!

If you can spare a few dollars, please either follow my link below or if you know of someone else, anything and everything helps.
