Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm taking part in the NY 5-Boro ride in May: a 40-mile tour of all boroughs. For every $40—a dollar for every mile—I manage to raise, NYC can:

• Hire five full-time managers for school programs.
• Buy 10 mobile bike fleets: two for each borough.
• Work with thousands of NYC school teachers to integrate the Bicycle Education Curriculum.

The organizers estimate that they’ll be able to teach bike skills to 75,000 kids as a result of this year's ride.

I try to spread diabetes prevention tips as much as I can, and exercise is a vital part of that: I want to do whatever I can to get kids outdoors, exercising!

Thanks for whatever you can donate to get us to the goal. Pray for good weather on May 7!
