The purpose of this letter is to tell you about my MS150 bike ride on MAY 3-4, 2008.

This is a GREAT event that is called the MS150 (Multiple Sclerosis), which is a 150 mile bike ride / fundraiser event that takes place each year across the country!

In Texas there will be three actual ride locations; the BP MS150 (Houston to Austin), the Sam's Club MS150 (Frisco to Ft. Worth), and the MS Valero Bike To Beach (San Antonio to Corpus Christi) and I will be riding in the Sam's Club leg of this event, and I would like to ask for your support. My average pledge is $75.00 and I would love to have a pledge from you if possible! All donations are completely tax deductible, and so you know where your financial support goes, approximately $.81 cents of every dollar goes to support research or programs for people who actually have Multiple Sclerosis (LIKE ME!) and $.19 cents is used for local fundraising and administrative costs. Unfortunately most MS patients are physically unable to attempt anything like this, but because I am so healthy, I feel blessed enough to participate!

I would be happy to answer any specific questions that you may have, so please let when it would be convenient to discuss this matter, so that I can make arrangements to talk with you!

Here is the link to my individual fundraising site, and thank you in advance for your financial support for the MS Society.

NOTE: Recently I was very surprised and honored when I was contacted recently by an advertising / PR agency in Houston who was interested in writing a story about ME!!??? The corporate offices for the MS Society happen to be located in Houston.

Anyway, here is the story link:
