Attention Tour of Hope DC Fundraising Ride Applicants! Cecil Ledesma just pointed out to me that the deadline for raising the $500 minimum donation is Monday, September 19, at 11:59pm Eastern Time. That's about six days from today.

The organizers impose a cut-off so they can ship out registration packets in time for qualified riders to receive them. If the organizers do what they did last year, they will count donations received after the deadline toward a rider's fundraising total.

Last year I raised $1,000 by September 15. We probably won't make it to $1,000 by the 15th this year, but we may make it to $500 by then. If you want to help out, all you need to do is click on the big Help Dave ride the Tour of Hope button. You'll be sent to a page where you can make a tax deductible donation to the Tour of Hope by credit card. Instructions are also there for making a donation by check. Thanks for your help.
