Post OT: Fundraising help needed!

I am doing the NorthEast AIDS Ride this year and need sponsors. In order to participate in the ride I must raise $2100. Last year I only managed to raise $1025 and donated the remaining $1100 myself. I cannot afford to do that this year. I'm doing the ride for numerous reasons, to honor those whose lives have been devastated by this disease, because it is one way that I can help, and I am doing the ride because I want there to be funding to find a cure. Remember that AIDS only effects three types of people:

Men
Women
& Children

Please visit my website and down load a pledge form:
<a href="http://members.rennlist.com/madmike/AIDSRide.html" target="_blank">http://members.rennlist.com/madmike/AIDSRide.html</a>

My home address is listed on my website. As the cutoff date to mail into the coordinators has passed please mail all donations to me prior to June 15th. I can bring these with me to rider registration.

Thank you so much!

Cool

Well they keep what I've raised in pledges and will let me ride if I come up with the rest of the money. As I did last year. It's not a bad deal and the hardest part is asking friends, family, and extenede Porsche family memebrs to open up thier wallets.

Wow. I wasn't aware the Soprano family had moved into the charity racket.

Don't let anyone tell you different - charity is a *big* business.
