One of the greatest things I love about blogging is that we really do enjoy helping each other out. I have no doubt that I can come to this little space on the web and find support, encouragement, and love! I’m coming to y’all today for a special request.
My best friend, Makayla, grew up with diabetes. We’ve been best friends for 18 years now and she’s battled diabetes for 15 of those years. On May 10, 2014, the day before her 25th birthday, I’ll be cycling 50 miles with Tour de Cure in New Orleans, LA in honor of her to raise money and awareness for diabetes education and research. I have no doubt that you or someone you know personally has been affected by diabetes.

The minimum amount I need to raise is $200 – that allows me to ride that day. I’m striving to be a champion by raising $1,000.00 though and I seriously need your help!
You can help me fight diabetes in 1 of 3 ways:
1) DONATE to my page. Any amount is greatly appreciated. I ask that you leave your name with your donation so that I can personally thank you and recognize you! I’ll be announcing my donors regularly, if you’re a blogger, I’ll be linking to your blog every time.
2) Share this post with others. Spread the word!
3) Choose to ride with Tour de Cure and raise money yourself! Find a location near you.
Together we can make a difference in the fight against diabetes!
