Sponsor Ken Brandt on his Ride to the Big Easy

                                

INTERNATIONAL FELLOWSHIP OF
  MOTORCYCLING ROTARIANS (IFMR),

Motorcycle Ride to 2011 Rotary Convention in New Orleans

To Benefit POLIO PLUS   

       

Members of IFMR are planning a series of motorcycle rides to the New Orleans Rotary Convention to raise awareness of and donations for Rotary's POLIO PLUS campaign.  The eastern US group will be leaving from Albany, NY, on May 15 and plans to arrive in Baton Rouge, LA, on May 19 where it will rendezvous with other IFMR riders from other parts of the continent for a Grand Entrance into New Orleans on May 20.  Riders are hoping to raise an average of $1/mile for the distance they travel to New Orleans.  Proceeds will go to the POLIO PLUS campaign and help complete the $200 million matching grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to help END POLIO NOW. 

Be a part of this campaign by sponsoring my ride. Our trip to N.O. is 1156 miles so I’m requesting from each E-town Rotarian to contribute a penny a mile ($11.56). All Rotarian donations will be credited to their Paul Harris account if they provide their Rotary information.
