Help us win the fight against heart disease

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

In the first two weeks of February I will be joining a group of cardiologists and health professionals, trading in our white coats for bike pants and beginning an epic cycle ride that will cover the length of New Zealand.

Our aim is to boost awareness of heart disease prevention and help raise $1 million for the Heart Foundation's Cardiovascular Research Fund. As a scientist researching cardiac disease I know how important this aim is. 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 will be completing the two stages from Auckland to Turangi - a distance of 327km! I need your support to complete my mission of fundraising $2000 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
