Well, having succeeded both at biking 34 miles last summer (after 7 weeks of training) and raising way more than my initial goal - and having made friends and had a good time both training and riding - Timothy and I are doing it again. And at our age, we will have to train again for 34 miles. We are glad to do it, though, for WE CAN and ourselves.
WE CAN's mission - to empower women to thrive and to support them as they build pathways to stability and self-sufficiency - is one we embrace. For 25 years, WE CAN has supported women on Cape Cod who are navigating life transitions, including job loss and career development, divorce or loss of a spouse, legal and immigration issues, debt and financial stability, and other personal situations.
Your donation to our ride will ensure that WE CAN continues to offer free and confidential services, including legal consultation, career support, financial empowerment, business support, mentoring, and personal development programs.
Your support also means a lot to us. As we pushed through cramps and rainy days and days we would have rather sat it out, we thought not only of the women who are pushing through harder challenges (mostly involuntarily) but also all of those who supported us. We wanted to justify your belief that we could do it.
Thank you for your support this year!!
