My personal message:
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page for Bolder Options!

Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support my fund raising efforts.

 My Goal is to raise $5000 for Bolder Options before I run the 26 mile marathon in Athens, Greece.

Last year I had the good fortune to graduate my first youth for the Bolder Options program (took me 2.5 years but I did it!).  To accomplish this my mentee and I, had to practicing biking 2-3 times a week for many weeks. Unbelievably to him, he complete all three biking events of 10, 20, 30 miles with other wonderful Bolder Options participants. For graduation and all of his hard work, my mentee recieved a new Bike!  It was a incredible journey together,  we tackled the every day challenges and tasks of life...homework,  positive communication, trust, friendships, healthy eating, athletics, and respect for all people.

I often ask myself was I the mentor or the mentee?

Thanks for your contribution!  And know that I run for Bolder Options and YOU!
