Help Me Fight Cancer with Fred Hutch - Plus Raffle with SKIS and Wine!
Hi Everyone! In August I'm riding my bike 50 miles with Obliteride to raise money for Fred Hutch Cancer Research Center. I really believe in Fred Hutch and their research, immunotherapy, and clinical trials that save lives. When you donate, I don't see the money, it goes directly to Fred Hutch through the Obliteride portal:
https://tinyurl.com/obliterideLVIRDEH
To sweeten the deal, I'm offering either a $150 bottle of wine from my favorite winery or an alcohol-free gift basket as a raffle item for those who donate $25 or more. The wine is Wilson Kenneth Carl 2014 Zinfandel. Each "ticket" is $25, so if you donate $100, you get 4 tickets. I will video and send out the raffle drawing process so everyone knows it's fair. I will do the drawing on August 18th, one week after the ride, but get your donations in early! I can see your donation amounts on the website referenced above.
Thank you so much for considering helping me raise money, I really appreciate it!Last edited by divegirl; 08-02-2018 at 02:03 PM.

Nice work, I did the very first Obliteride 6 or 7 years ago. Very good cause.

This should not be on the second page. Cancer sucks and Obliteride is a great way to donate funds directly to a research hospital working on cures and treatments for cancer.

Thank You!
Woah! Thank you byates1!! I’ll PM you for questions, thank you! And yeah, I’ve come out of hibernation and this thread reminds me why I need to post here more often. I learned to rip, scored a hot husband, and had a rippin’ kid due to this forum, awww yeah.
Thank you Hutash for your generous donation, miss you dude!!
Thank you for bumping sorrybro.
And thank you again flowing for the generous donation!
I’m adding another bottle of my own wine or gift basket to the raffle on top of what byates is giving.

WOAH!!! Was away for a week vacation and this is incredible to return to - thank you byates1!!! I will include the skis in my raffle drawing, and thank you for being willing to cover shipping! Do you prefer that these skis are raffled for maggots who donated, only? I have a number of other family and friends who have also bought "tickets" but I don't think they would appreciate these skis if they won them. What do you think?
