Welcome to My Personal Page
Over the past 15 years, Team Samaritan has raised over $2 million to support emergency assistance, food, clothing, shelter, counseling, education and life-skills training for our neighbors who are working to rebuild their lives.
By donating to my ride through the Samaritan Cycling team, you are helping those who need help, not just today, but long term, to bring an end to someone's homeless situation. This team has joined its love of cycling with the passion to help provide food, clothing, shelter, and an opportunity to get back on their feet.
Your kind donation will help break the cycle of homelessness by funding shelters, providing food, clothing, life skill classes, and aiding support groups.
