I am riding the Wisconsin AIDS Ride for the third time this year!!  This cause is important to me because I believe that we need to keep HIV a relevant topic by discussing testing, treatment, prevention, and especially the negative stigma that comes with being HIV positive.  

I ride to support the AIDS Resource Center of Wisconsin.  This organization provides access to medical and dental care for those living with HIV.  Medical care is extremely expensive, especially for those living with a chronic medical condition like HIV/AIDS.  Your donations go directly to this organization which help our neighbors in Wisconsin.

I also ride to support the other riders and volunteers that feel as strongly as I do on this issue.  Many riders and volunteers have lost family members or friends from HIV/AIDS and ride/participate as a tribute to their memory.  This group of people comes together every year for a good cause; they are united in success, happiness, and celebration of life.  I can't wait to see them all again in July.

Please help me make my third ride a successful one by donating.  All efforts to help me achieve my goals are greatly appreciated!!
