Cycle Together for CPMB — It’s as easy as riding a bike!
I am participating in the Cerebral Palsy Association Manitoba's Westman Bike Race and would like to ask you for a donation which will go towards helping individuals and their families affected by Cerebral Palsy (CP). The CPMB Stationary Bike Race is the major fundraiser for the Cerebral Palsy Association which provides services in the form of grants for specialized mobility, communication equipment, computer technology, software programs, scholarships, support and advocacy in the areas such as education, housing, accessibility and human rights. Thank you for considering my request. #CPProud
