Hello from Ronnie Lunsford

I am sending this out to everyone in my address book trying to raise money for much needed research for the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation.

If you ride a motorcycle please come and join us, if you are not in the Houston area please consider supporting a Ride for Kids event in your area.

Our 2009 Houston Ride for Kids event is this coming Sunday and I need your help.

The Houston Ride for Kids event is an annual motorcycle ride raising money for the Pediatric Brain Tumor  Foundation.

The photo that you see is myself and Garrett Clark having fun at the International Motorcycle Show in Houston last November. Garrett is one of the many brave brain tumor survivors, who is doing very well thanks to the research being done at Texas Childrens Hospital and MD Anderson. Research that is funded by our annual Ride for Kids event.

Our 2009 ride date is Sunday April 26th at the Humble Civic Center. We ride for the kids rain or shine. I have been involved with the Houston Ride for Kids event for 17 years. Last year our ride raised over $283,000 which goes directly to research.

We have made great progress in this terrible disease, but we still have much to accomplish. Brain tumors continue to be the #1 killer of children under the age of 20. These children and their families go through what no child or parent should ever have to endure.

Please help make a difference in the life of a child diagnosed with a brain tumor by making a donation for our much needed research. Donating through this site is simple, fast, and totally secure. It is also the most effecient way to make a contribution to our fund raising efforts. Many thanks for your support, and don't forget to share this page with anyone who you think would like to donate too !! With your help we will find a cure for childhood brain tumors.

Thank you for visiting my Personal Fundraising Page

I'd also like to share this Firstgiving Page from a mother that has been through this with her son, because it tells the story way better than I can begin to, please  visit www.firstgiving.com/4zachary  you may choose to donate to her site, the money all goes to the same place, the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation.
