the SMART ride.
**THIS WILL BE THE LAST TIME I POST THIS!!! I PROMISE!!! This week is THE week that we will ride. So read on read on. Thank you all who have contributed!!! It means the world to us.**
Dearest friends, family, and most special readers,
I have a favor to ask of you. On January 8th and 9th 2010, Ryan and I are participating in The SMART Ride (The Southernmost AIDS/HIV Ride)--a 165-mile bike ride from Miami to Key West to raise money for HIV/AIDS charities in which 100% of the funds donated to the riders will go.
For a very long time now, I've wanted to do something in HIV/AIDS research and awareness and finally, the opportunity has presented itself to me. I feel an immeasurable passion towards educating the public about HIV/AIDS research and want to do my part in helping these charities as much as I possibly can.
That being said, any amount will be most appreciated. There is a "donate" link to the right of this entry which is linked to PayPal. If you can help out, I will be eternally thankful (and if you send me your address, I will be glad to write you a personal thank you note, too!).
Thanks so much!
xoxo,
TFH.
