Dear Friends, and supporters of my work.
Thank you so much for purchasing my books, coming to my shows and supporting me in being able to dedicate my life to art, creativity and poetry full time. One exciting event that i will be participating in is the Annual AIDS Life Cycle. An annual event that gathers hundreds and thousands of cyclists coming together for an important cause; to raise money for AIDS Research, prevention and care. This will be the first year that i will be participating int his event. It is a 545 mile ride that will take place from May 31st to June 6th. As a cyclist and participant in this event, i am responsible for fundraising at least $3000 by May 6th. I am setting myself the goal of reaching $3000 and then $2000 more before the deadline. So i really need all of your support in order to achieve this. I know these are hard times, but it is important to support these causes that affect so many of us whether directly or indirectly. Anything you can donate, as small or silly as you think it might be, will most definetly help make a difference! Thanks again for your constant support. Love, Peace and Bike Grease! - gaby
