Hi all,

Hello!  Well, it’s that time!  Time for me to ask you to open your wallet or checkbook and to make a donation to Habitat for Humanity, once again.  

First, thank you so much for your past support of my ride.  With your help I have been able to help raise over $25,000 over the last 9 years.  All of that money went directly towards helping build 14 different families a home.  From the bottom, top & middle of my heart, I thank you!  

Second, would you consider continuing to support the mission of Habitat for Humanity by donating to my ride again this year?  

This year will be my 10th consecutive ride supporting Habitat for Humanity.  We have a new name this year: Bike.Build.Home 500 (or the BBH 500), but it’s all the same great people who all have a love for Habitat and its mission of building affordable housing for families.  This year will also feature another first - we’ll be in LaCrosse, WI! 

This year I will again be sharing this adventure with my daughter!  She (along with my husband, as well as my parents - all pictured above) will get to experience the ride with me this year!  If you’re interested in following along with our adventure, I’ll be posting a few pictures to my facebook page.

Thanks for considering a donation to my ride again this year. I appreciate you more than you know! :)

My goal this year is to raise $5,000 and to bike 500 miles.  Would you be willing to donate to my fundraising goal?  Any amount would be very much appreciated.  Perhaps you can be part of my 1% club - 100 donors, donating $50?  The funds I raise this year will be split between the Central MN affiliate house in St. Cloud, and Seng & Ge Yang’s house in La Crosse.  Seng & Ge and their four kiddos - are excited to stop moving from one expensive & unsafe rental unit to another.  They are looking forward to helping build their house, and to finally have a place to permanently call home!  ❤️ Let’s help their dream of home ownership become a reality!  Please donate what you are able - although it’s cliche, every penny really does help!

For those who are ok with online, please donate here.  

If you prefer snail mailing a check, that's fabulous too!  Hopefully you remember my address, but if not, please DM me.

Thank you so much for your support – whether financial or in spirit! It means a great deal to me that you would choose to support me in this effort; but it means even more to the families who pay for & move into these homes.  It’s truly a ‘hand-up’ not a ‘hand-out’.  Thank you for your help in giving parents the chance to provide a safe & affordable place for their children to sleep at night – and kids a place to grow up safe & healthy!

Thank You! Thank You!
