If you’re new to my website, you may not know about my now annual Pretty in Pink fundraisng. It’s pretty simple. The pink is about Breast Cancer Awareness Month. It’s about hope. It’s about the cycling community rallying around a Fort Collins based non-profit that provides local breast cancer patients with complementary care and lifestyle support during breast cancer treatment. It’s about looking good while doing good and maybe snagging some cool prizes in the process.
Over the past two years, I invited sponsors, friends and fans to become “Pretty in Pink” with me. Responses far exceeded my expectations. Together we’ve raised $23,000 for Hope Lives! The Lydia Dody Breast Cancer Foundation.
In the past three years, I’ve partnered with incredibly generous companies to bring you a variety of ways to help the cause including on-site events, online raffles and Pretty in Pink! merchandise. I’m looking forward to bigger, better and pinker things in year four, so stay tuned to learn how you can get involved again or for the first time.
THANK YOU!!! To EVERYONE who has supported Pretty in Pink since its inception in 2010. I remain overwhelmed with the way product donors, the cycling community and each of you have embraced this cause with me.
