Donations to Kidneeds

The stock graphs for the past year look like a reverse of the terrain that Steve is going to be covering in June. His dream of finishing the 2709 miles with every mile sponsored for Kidneeds is going to require the help of many, many people. His journey will be completed by going at it one pedal at a time. Our goal of raising will be met one mile at a time. You will see that you can sponsor a mile at differing amounts. Every mile is important- to Steve and to the patients with DDD who are counting on Kidneeds to find a treatment. Donating is easy, just click on the donation button below. Thank you

DivideITT for Kidneeds 2009

Steve is racing in the Dirty Kanza this weekend to get ready for the DivideITT for Kidneeds, beginning June 12,2009. The Dirty Kanza will provide Steve with 200 hot miles to be finished in 24 hours.

The DivideITT and Conquer for Kidneeds will begin in Banff, Canada June 12 and finish on the New Mexico/Mexico border. The Divide Individual Time Trials is an off road bike race, considered one of the most challenging races in the world. Steve is hoping to get every one of the 2,745 miles he is riding, sponsored for Kidneeds.

If we each divide the miles and sponsor a mile or two, together we can get all the miles sponsored and go a long ways towards funding Dense Deposit Disease research.

Thanks~~
