I am joining thousands of other cyclists and the American Lung Association to raise money to fight lung disease and increase awareness about the importance of lung health.

Lung disease can take someone's breath away - and when you can't breathe, nothing else matters!

Every dollar you donate gives 90 cents to research, education, and advocacy for patients with asthma, COPD, emphysema, lung cancer and other lung diseases.

Visit lung.org if you know someone who could benefit from the many resources ALA offers (smoking cessation programs, asthma education, Saved By the Scan screening info and more).

I appreciate any financial support. Your contributions are doing good work! Please consider a tax-free donation - it's as easy as clicking on the secure link below or through the Facebook fundraiser. If you prefer to donate by check, please make the check out to American Lung Association and send to my home (send me a message for my address if you don't have it).

Thanks for your consideration. As always please keep my efforts in your prayers and send me the names of your loved ones who have a lung disease or have lost the battle. They are my inspiration and will be in my thoughts and prayers as I ride in the second Gulf Coast Bike Trek.

Thank you.

Please join me in my efforts to make a difference by making a personal or corporate tax-deductible donation.

Thank you in advance for you support!
