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

In early of February I will be joining a group of cardiologists and health professionals beginning an epic cycle ride that will cover the length of New Zealand. I will be riding the South Island from Nelson to Bluff.

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.

I need your support to complete my mission of fundraising $6,000 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.
And what's more, your donation will be doubled, as an anonymous benefactor has agreed to match every donation dollar for dollar up to $500,000!

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!

Mike
