I'm Riding to End AIDS

From June 1-7, 2008, I'm bicycling in AIDS/LifeCycle. It's a 7-day, 545-mile bike ride from San Francisco to Los Angeles to make a world of difference in the lives of people living with HIV and AIDS. I am riding for all women, men and children affected by AIDS who are unable.

Help me support the San Francisco AIDS Foundation by giving what you can. Any donation in any amout is appreciated. I have to raise a minimum of 2,500.00 to be able to participate, and have increased my personal goal to raising 10,000.00 by the middle of May,2008.

I am grateful to be able to ride and be a part of this very important fund raiser. As a token of my appreciation, I will have all the names of my sponsors embroidered on my Jersey. This way, YOU will be with me every day, through every mile, through every hill, through all the beautiful sun rises and sun sets and every beautiful vision on the horizon. You will be my strength to continue and complete the 545 miles. No money goes through my hands and all your donations go directly to the foundation.

I will embroider the highest donor's name on my heart as a token of my heart felt appreciation . At the end of the event, I will cherish the Jersey and all the memories and make this the beginning of a lifetime commitment to continue riding the AIDS/LifeCycle ride each year.

Thank you for your generosity , and please feel free to forward this message to all your friends and family members who will be interested to sponsor me and help achieve my goal of raising 10,000.00.

We'll keep riding until AIDS and HIV are a thing of the past.
