Tax deductible
Saludos!
Por tercer año consecutivo, y esta vez, durante el fin de semana del 2 al 5 de Septiembre voy a recorrer 311 millas en bici desde La Cross (Wisconsin) hasta Chicago con el objetivo de recaudar fondos para la organización Girlforward con la cual ya coloaboro como voluntario. Su principal foco relocalizar a adolescentes refugiadas, ofreciendo tutorías personalizadas, programas educativos y oportunidades de liderazgo.
Los gastos del viaje estarán cubiertos por mi y por algunos patrocinadores.
Todas las donaciones van directo al número de cuenta de la organización.
¡Gracias por el apoyo!
Hello,
Over Labor Day weekend (September 2nd-5th, 2016) I will be participating in Bikes 4 Books, a long-distance bike ride and fundraiser from La Cross, Wisconsin to Chicago.
This year, B4B is a fundraiser to benefit GirlForward (GF), a group dedicated to creating opportunity for adolescent refugee girls who have been resettled in the U.S. from countries around the world. GirlForward provides refugee girls with individual mentorship, educational programs and leadership opportunities, creating a community of support that serves as a resource and empowers girls to be strong, confident and independent.
Over our 4 day, 311 mile, bike adventure, more than 20 riders and myself will be sweating, pedaling, and pushing ourselves in hopes of raising pledges for GF from wonderful individuals like yourself. These pledges will go on to support projects aimed at helping girls in our own communities here in Chicago take the next step towards a better education and life, thanks to GirlForward.
So want to help? Well, here are 3 great ways you can help contribute to GirlForward, B4B, and my efforts:
1. Pledges: Make a pledge to my ride and help me reach my goal. Every dollar counts. And don’t forget, your generous contributions are tax-deductible with GirlForward’s EIN number: 45-2987277
2. In Kind Donations: If you’d like to donate a meal, a bed to sleep in, or a hand to help to help defray the cost for the riders, please reach out to [email redacted]. Note that all monetary pledges above will go to GirlForward.
3. Spread the word: Connect with B4B on facebook and twitter and share the message and pass around this link! All are welcome to help B4B and GF have a great result.
Thank you in advance for your consideration and generosity!
Thanks,
