A Reason to Ride and donate to Movable Feast


[A letter from Movable Feast to one of Baltimore Spokes friends:]

When we meet our clients, they are caught in a vicious cycle where disease thrives. They are sick. They are poor. Many are alone. We work to reverse this downward spiral by feeding them, caring for them and creating hope.

This year, we are pairing each of our Riders with one of our clients. Our hope is that you will feel a personal connection to this ride and to Moveable Feast by knowing that you are making a real difference in the life of a specific person.

The client you’ve been paired with (initials only): A.T. is a 55 year-old African American female who is anemic and living with AIDS in Baltimore City . A.T. is blind.

Please know that by reaching your fundraising goal of $1,200 that you have provided this person with three nutritionally balanced meals a day for a whole year. You should take great pride and comfort in knowing that thanks to you, this individual will receive the nutrition that they need to fight their illness. You’ve made their lives a little easier, a little better – and you’ve given them hope.

From all of us at Moveable Feast – thank you! .

Like most people I live a hectic life and who has the time for much exercise? Thanks to xtracycle now I do. By using my bike for daily activities I can get things done and get an hour plus work out in 15 minutes extra of my time, not a bad deal and beats taking the extra time going to the gym. In case you are still having trouble being motivated; the National Center of Disease Control says that inactivity is the #2 killer in the United States just behind smoking. ( http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/bb_nutrition/ ) Get out there and start living life! I can carry home a full shopping cart of groceries, car pool two kids or just get lost in the great outdoors camping for a week. Well I got go, another outing this weekend.
