On September 13th I’ll be riding in the Second Summer Charity ride (secondsummercycle.com), which benefits 19 Cape Cod nonprofits. I’ll be riding for the Family Table Collaborative (https://www.familytablecollaborative.org/). FTC’s mission is to end hunger and provide nutritional security on Cape Cod. FTC distributes about 1,000 meals per week. During the February 2026 blizzard it helped prepare and distribute more than 15,000 meals.
I’ll be doing the 30 mile route starting and ending at Smugglers Beach in South Yarmouth and hope to raise $500. (This ain’t the PanMass Challenge.) I’m asking friends to consider a $20 (or more) tax deductible donation to the Family Table Collaborative in my name by clicking on the "Donate" button.
Thanks for your support!
