Dear [insert name],

For millions of people in developing countries, distance and lack of transportation often stand between them and their futures. A simple bicycle can change all that. 

That’s why I’m supporting World Bicycle Relief, a nonprofit organization that aims to support students, health workers and entrepreneurs with specially made bicycles. This simple tool helps people conquer distance, achieve independence and thrive. 

Right now, World Bicycle Relief is on the cusp of a historic milestone: 500,000 bicycles distributed to people in need. 

Between now and 12/31, all donations made through my fundraising page will be matched 1:1. That means your gift will go 2x as far and make double the impact. 

Will you help me in my efforts to change lives? Make a donation through my fundraising page today!
