$5000 goal reached and blown away!
Tuesday 23rd Apr 2024Wow. 10 days in Italy on vacation with my beautiful wife, and then I come back and my buddy Cory (twitch.tv/oohcando) decides to run a fundraising drive on his stream. A developer for add ons for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 called my bluff when I said I'd match donations during the drive, and hit me with another $1000 on top of their previous $500 donation. Thank you to Cando (twitch.tv/oohcando) and Jonx / Got Friends, TwoSeventy, Hamza, ItzNorcally (twitch.tv/itznorcally), Citizen, and Flyndive.
What's next? At this point we have about four more weeks. We're 5 weeks into the donation period. I think I'm going to go $10,000, and if we make it we do, and if we don't we don't.
We've already broken our fundraising goal three times. Who says we can't do it again.
LET'S GO
$3,000 IN 3 DAYS
Saturday 6th Apr 2024You are all amazing. I'm blown away and I got very emotional when we hit the goal yesterday, hence why I didn't post an update tilltoday.
$3,000 goal has been updated to $5,000 since we still have almost a month and a half to fundraise.
LET'S KEEP GOING!
I don't know why but I feel like I need to give a photo every update, so here's one after I completed the last ride I did in front of the last bike I rode on (RIP it was stolen and wrecked).
$1,560 RAISED
Thursday 4th Apr 2024YOU! You all have done this for men's mental health and prostate cancer awareness. In 24 hours, we've raised that much money for the cause.
LET'S KEEP GOING!
I also never mentioned that one of the foundation's specific focuses is on men's mental health for first responders and veterans, and since the two top contributors so far are a fireman and an Army veteran, I feel like it's necessary to point out that this is a BIG part of the cause.
So thank you again everybody, and let's keep going. Photo attached is after the last ride I participated in, which was disgustingly hot for early may and I'm wearing full armor under my suit.
THANK YOU
Thursday 4th Apr 2024To everyone that donated, we're under 24 hours since I started fundraising and we've raised over $800!
You guys are the BEST. Let's keep it going!
Here's a shot of what I'll be riding!
I'm Riding for Men's Health in The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride
Monday 1st Apr 2024 On Sunday the 19th of May 2024, I'm riding in The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride with fellow men and women across the globe to raise funds and awareness for prostate cancer and men's mental health on behalf of Movember. Men die on average 6 years earlier than women and for largely preventable reasons. The number of men that are suffering is growing, and we need to do something about that. So, before I press my tweed and polish my boots, I'm asking you to join me in raising funds and awareness for these causes by donating what you can for this meaningful cause and to help the men we love, live happier and healthier lives.My Sponsors
