3 Weeks until the Houston-Austin MS150 - Please Donate
 
This is the largest MS150 in the US. Donations support the Multiple Sclerosis society. Better than 80% of the money raised goes to research or directly helping people with MS. Truly it is one of the better charities.

This will be my 7th MS150!

If you would like to donate, please use the link below!

Please do donate! Joanna my wife has MS. At age 35 she was diagnosed with it. In the last 14 years it's stopped her from working, walking and driving. MS has stolen so much from our life.

Tetrawest Solar is providing 30 solar powered cell-phone charging stations for the BP MS150. The M150 is a 150 mile, 2 day charity bike ride from Houston to Austin. It supports the Lone Star chapter of the MS Society. Each charging station can charge up to 4 cell phones at once.

While the sun is up, the phones will charge using the solar panel. After dark, the internal battery will allow up to 50 more phones to be charged. Please consider making a donation using the tiny link below. All proceeds support the Lone Star Chapter of the MS Society

Cindy was diagnosed at age 32...but we've been fortunate. Hers is a slow developing variety of the disease.

This is one of the horrible things about this disease...it strikes in young adulthood, at the time when life and careers are just beginning. It is a thief of the usually productive and active years.
