Thank you for visiting my Personal Fundraising Page 

It was an amazing day of support all around. Emmaus put on another fantastic event on July 28. I never thought I could ride d/t my shoulder injury, but many thanks to Kurt of Riverside Haverhill Bike Shop for suggesting I ride my trainer bike in the Riverside tent while the teams were out on the road. A generous supporter donated $1.00/minute -So I pedalled 100 Minutes, with several photography breaks -- felt proud wearing the Emmaus/NSC jersey.

 I got to see what I don't when out riding---the  volunteers in action--registration, computers, and the tremendous food set-up operation--And then they had to clean everything up while we cyclists went home. Thank you so much Janine, Gretchen, and Margot and your teams for an outstanding event---once again!  

Our North Shore Cyclist team has been amazing, AGAIN. Thanks to so many riders helping motivate teammates, helping to ride safely, and reaching out to inform about Emmaus and recruit support, and more cyclists joining, we have surpassed our total from last year ($17,000) and are over $20,000 today! Awesome team I represent!

I request your support of Emmaus through this website, or, simply by a check to Cycle for Shelter 2020 w/ my name in the memo box so it gets on the right list.  It matters greatly to many families in our very neighborhoods. 

I am raising critically needed funds to support Emmaus programs that help families and individuals who are homeless rebuild their lives. On any given night, more than 300 adults and children call “Emmaus” home. Located in Haverhill, MA, last year Emmaus programs assisted more than 2,478 different people each year, including 1,238 children! Emmaus has been recognized in Massachusetts and nationally as a best-practice model for responding to homelessness.

Cycle for Shelter brings together hundreds of riders and volunteers who care deeply about creating solutions to the tragedy of homelessness. I will be included among this group of local heroes who are striving to make homelessness a thing of the past.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to make a contribution to my fundraising efforts. Many thanks for your support --any amount you can give is very much appreciated!!!
