Friends and Family,
I will be participating in my third Flag2GC mountain bike ride, 65 miles from Flagstaff to Grand Canyon, on August 5th. Last year was too wet to make it all the way to Grand Canyon so I'm hoping we are able to do the full ride this year.
This is a fund-raising ride for Marine League Charities and their Toys for Tots program, and I would appreciate any donations you might be willing to offer. No amount is too small: every $20 allows Toys for Tots to provide for one additional child. You can give with any major credit card and it only takes 30 seconds.
Thank you for supporting me!
2023 Flagstaff to Grand Canyon Charity Ride
On Saturday, August 5th, 200+ brave souls will ride their mountain bikes 65 miles along the Moqui Stagecoach trail that used to connect Flagstaff to the Grand Canyon. Why? Well, the Flag2GC charity ride has been raising money for the Marine League Charities (MLC) since 1998. Since then, we've raised over $1 million - enabling Toys for Tots (T4T) to provide toys, books, and stocking stuffers to more than 10,000 children in Northern Arizona each year. In addition to Toys for Tots, proceeds from this event allows MLC to fund the Flagstaff Youth Program, Wounded Marine Program, as well as a Scholarship Fund for Coconino Community College.
The Marine League Charities is an Arizona not-for-profit charitable corporation organized for the purpose of supporting charities including those organized to assist children of Northern Arizona and those charities benefiting members of the U.S. Armed Forces.
In accordance with our mission statement, Marine League Charities (MLC) supports and funds the following local charities:
· Flagstaff Community Toys for Tots
· Flagstaff Youth Program
· Wounded Marine Program
· Marine Relief
· Coconino Community College Scholarship Fund
