HELP FOR A TEAM-MATE

I could not be out here if it weren't for the incredible support I've received throughout this entire process. Thanks You!

However, some of my teamates have not had the incredible fortune that I have. One of my teamates, Jon Cook from Chattanooga TN who attends Lenoir Rhyne University in North Carolina, is having some difficulty fundraising. This is a guy who I have bled with, sweat with, and cried with. Every day he pushes the team, makes hilarious sarcastic comments, and makes the teambetter. I have learned that this summer is not about me, its about the team and what were doing. Jon is a guy who will help weakercyclists on the bike, and energize us for our friendship visits nomatter how tired we may think we are. Unfortunately, due to the struggling economy and other circumstances Jon has not been able to raise the pre requisite amount of money and is in danger of being sent home. It would be devastating to the team if he is not with us for the entire trip. I am asking you to help out my team and Jon and donate. I have seen exactly where all of the money that we have raised goes and it is incredible. When we hand a check to a center for people with disabilities, the smiles make everything worthwhile. Your donations are tax deductible and will help out an incredible guy who I've become real close with. I've attached the link to his fundraising page below, andI can't tell you how much I appreciate your support.

Thanks again,and were gunna keep doing what were doing all the way into DC!ToddDonate to: Jon CookClick link below ...
