Event: The Great Ride for Heart 2010
Event Date: 1/2/2010

On February 6th I will be joining a group of cardiologists and health professionals who are cycling length of New Zealand. I am doing the 6th leg from Turangi to Marton, a distance of 170km.

I am currently in the last year of my medical degree and I have also been cycling competitively for the past 2 years. I cant think of a better way to combine my 2 passions than to support this great cause. It would be great if you could support it with me!

Our aim is to boost awareness of heart disease prevention and help raise $1 million for the Heart Foundation's Cardiovascular Research Fund.
Every cent we raise will go directly towards an essential chair in new preventive heart health research at the University of Auckland, which will benefit All New Zealanders.

Along the way we will engage with locals and stage fundraising events in selected towns to raise awareness of heart health from Cape Reinga to Bluff.
I need your support to complete my mission of fundraising $1500 myself!

I'll do all the hard work (train for and complete the ride), but I really need you to make a difference to the hearts of New Zealanders.

Please could you sponsor me?

Select the "Make a donation" button below. It's simple, fast and totally secure and the money goes directly to the Heart Foundation's bank account.

If you live in New Zealand your donation is tax deductible and a receipt will be issued.

So please help me today! And pass it on to your family and friends! The future heart health of every New Zealander depends on it

Many thanks for your support
