The Wishes

All, The final tally is in on the donations raised for Make a Wish. $34,000 was donated by friends, family, and colleagues. The company matched all donations over $100 and our generous CEO made a personal donation which got us to the 4 wish mark. Over 100 people donated, some of them complete strangers who read articles about my ride in Traders Magazine or other periodicals and generously donated.

Within the next month we will get Make a Wish and some wish families together to grant the wishes and to talk a little bit about the importance of Make a Wish and organizations like it.

It was an incredibly moving experience for me in many ways and i am extremely happy that we will be able to grant 4 wishes to children with life threatening diseases.

Thank you again to everyone who helped me along the way !

P.S. I will continue to blog on this site and will be posting after the wishes are granted and throughout the year as i plan my next ride.
