My personal message:

Hello from Ronnie Lunsford

I am sending this out to raise money for much needed research for the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation.

The annual Houston Ride for Kids event is Sunday April 25th, 2010

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.

The photo you see is myself and Garrett Clark having fun at the International Motorcycle Show in Houston. Garrett is one of the many brave brain tumor surviviors, 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 2010 ride date is Sunday April 25th 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 18 years. Last year our ride raised a record $300, 438 which goes directly to research.

We have made tremendous 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, including surgery, chemo, and radiation.

This is a special day for the kids and their families as they all look forward to participating and riding in our ride !!!!!!

Please help make the 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 efficient way to make a contribution to our fund raising efforts. Many thanks for your support, and don't forget to please share this page with anyone who you think would like to see it or 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 so much better than I can begin to, please visit www.firstgiving.com/4zachary you may choose to donate to Angei's site, the money all goes to the same place, the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation. Angei's story illustrates why we need to continue to work hard to raise funds for research to battle this dreaded disease.
