Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!
Hey Ya ALL!! Thanks for coming by. Check out this benefit ride that I'm supporting. Climate Cycle is a benefit bike ride along Lake Michigan on May 09th, beginning and ending in Grant Park; the park where "Change Came To America" Well Folks, CHANGE is coming to town once again! I'm helping to raise funds for CHICAGO PUBLIC SCHOOLS to place SOLAR PANELS on their rooftops, and monitoring gauges inside the classrooms! Schools spend much more money on ENERGY COSTS, than textbooks! The biggest culprit of carbon emissions is from energy used for BUILDINGS ! We can all breathe a little easier if we get behind this thing. Who knows how big this thing can get. Chicago could become the model for other school districts in our nation, as well as the rest of our WORLD ! The first installation happens Tuesday April 14th! It's the first year for this ride, which makes it even more exciting. Check out the CLIMATE CYCLE website for all the skinny! **NEWSFLASH !** MOTOROLA just pedged to match up to $30,000 of donations !! Super cool. Now your donation will go TWICE as far! But WAIT! .....There's MORE!!.... I'll even throw in an AB SO LUTELY FREE! (yes I said it) FREE ! set of KNIVES!! Not really, I'm just joking bout the knives, but the Motorola matching our donations thing is REAL folks!! If that doesn't make ya all want to jump up on a table or bookshelf or something, and do a little jig, I don't know what would (besides a free set knives of course, but as I mentioned above, that ain't happenin).
Solar Panels for Chicago Schools, Bicycle Benefit Ride along Lake Michigan, Music ,and Food. What's not to like about that stuff?? Let's ALL make it happen :) Please feel free to sponsor me ON THIS PAGE with whatever you can spare. Even a 1$ pledge will make you feel good. Every little bit helps, and is very much appreciated. OoooR, YOU can create your own fundraising page, and ride too! If you feel like becoming one of the few and the proud, (NO, not the Marines my friend), you can join our TRADER JOES TEAM, and raise funds that way. We all would love to welcome you to our climate changing circus on wheels. Give me a holler anytime if you have any questions. :) If you would like a newsletter about news and progress pertaining to this movement, just sign up on the website, or give me a holler, and I'll get it to you.
