Countdown - 177 days
I've got 15 minutes left in the day so that I can keep up my streak of a blog post every day so far this year. But I'm wiped out, so this will be short.
I heard from the Indiana Chapter of the Chron's and Colitis Foundation of America today. Thankfully, they are more than happy to accept my monetary donations and help me educate folks about these diseases. You know, I don't even know if that's the proper term but I think you get my gist.
I'm very happy that they are pleased that I want to do something for their organization. I know that sounds odd, but if you don't ride a motorcycle, you probably don't realize what kind of stereotypes we have to deal with.
There's a special fundraiser in March in Fort Wayne, and I think I'll plan to attend that to learn more about the people in the CCFA as well as those who suffer. Maybe I'll learn something (maybe? ha! it's certain I will) and maybe I can convince more folks to sign up for my blog and follow my trip. But most importantly, I can figure out the best ways to generate donations from people willingly.
Of course, I could always just glower at people stopped at traffic lights and scare them into giving. Wouldn't that be the stereotypical 'biker' way? HA!
