The Tour de Cure is a series of fundraising bicycling events across the country benefiting the American Diabetes Association. All money raised will go to support research, advocacy and education for diabetes.
I'm riding for my dad and my Lola (my grandmother). I certainly can't do justice for my namesake's accomplishments, or be half the person she is-- so much to live by! She has definitely been an inspiration to go on further!
The goal is to raise $500 for the cause. Tour de Cure is on June 14, 2009 in Silicon Valley, CA, I'd love to have a companion, so please let me know if you want to come TRY to do this with me! We can form a team and raise the funds together!
My gym who is helping train for Tour de Cure wants to give a free month at 24 Hour Fitness to anyone who wants to help the cause! Not only do you get to support the cause and your friend, but you also get the chance to have a healthier you-- no matter how small or large your donation is!
Love Always,
Esperanza
