Welcome to my 2009 Ride for Semper Fi webpage. I am both excited and honored to once again be part of this great event. If you were a part of last years event, you know that we were successful in raising more than 65 thousand dollars to aid our injured heroes. Our plan this year will be to once again do everything we can to raise awareness and funds for those who have given so much to protect our freedom. While we recognize people are sturggling in this current economic environment, it is important to know that life threatening injures and illnesses suffered from battle know no economics. The needs of our young heores are greater than ever and continue to mount everyday. As you consider giving to this cause, I would invite you to go to the Injured marine Website and watch some of the videos that show what an impact your donation will make on the lives of these young people. To view the videos go to http://www.semperfifund.org/index.html. In addition, dont forget to visit our site for more news and blogs on the ride WWW.TherideforSemperfi.com Thank you again for your gift...it will be greatly appreciated by our young heroes. Semper Giving is a part of the American psyche. It is an American trait that runs deep in our culture. Donating of time and money, charitable giving and empathy for others are some of the great attributes that define our nation and its people. Again, Thank You For Your Comtinued Support
