My personal message:

Thank you for visiting our Fundraising Page.

NOTE:  Some network firewalls block the "Sponsor me Now" button at the top of this page.  If you do not see the button above, you may need to open this page from another location (perhaps from home).

On May 3, 2009, we will be participating in the Triangle Area Ride for Kids® to support the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation (PBTF).

We're not riding because we have a child who has been diagnosed with this terrible disease.  We're riding because we've been blessed with 4 wonderful children & an amazing grandson who have not.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to make a contribution to our fundraising efforts. Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!

God Bless,
Jerry, Jane & Family
