Chris's Story

Hi, friends! I need your help. I hate asking for money, but some causes are worth it. I'm training for a 200k bike race in Ibiza, Spain next April to raise funds for a wonderful organization that provides services and brings dignity to people with brain injuries like myself--SameYou. My fundraising goal is $2500. Anything you can give helps lead to that goal.I know I've told my story about my own brain injury a number of times here, but it's had the biggest immediate impact on my life of anything in my life. I had to relearn how to talk and read twice, how to walk or eat on my own, and how to navigate the world with much less control of my right arm and leg.The sad reality is that 1 in 3 people worldwide will have some kind of brain injury at some time in their lives, so I'm certain all of us know someone who has dealt with this challenge.So, I'm asking for you to donate whatever you can so I can raise funds to support SameYou's very worthwhile mission. And if you're not able to donate, I completely understand. I'd appreciate you cheering me on as I train for and participate in the race next spring.Thanks so much, dear friends for the support and encouragement you've always given me.
