Hi, Team Captains and Top Fundraisers—

I know our local staff have been making calls, sending texts and our marketing team sent an email yesterday, but I wanted to send one quick reminder before our second match of the season goes live at 11 AM CT.

TODAY AT 11 AM CT: $275,000 BIKE MS SERIES-WIDE MATCH

• Online donations will be matched 1:1 up to $1,000 per participant
• Only donations made directly to a specific participant will qualify. General event and team donations will not be matched.
• The match is available until the $275,000 pool is depleted
• Every Bike MS event remaining this year is participating, so we expect this to go very fast

Over the past 7 days, we raised $73,000 last week toward our $100,000 fundraising week goal, leaving us $27,000 to close the gap. I’m hoping this match gives us the opportunity to make up that difference.

If you have a reliable donor, ask them to give right at 11 AM, or consider making a self-donation. Please share this with your team.

I know there is a TON going on right now, so just a few other things to keep on your radar: I’ll announce last week’s Fundraising Week winners on Facebook and directly to the winners later today. Tomorrow, we’ll send the calendar with details for the Bike Stop Cafe group ride this weekend, upcoming engagement opportunities and packet pickup dates. Staff will also make one final outreach to unregistered cyclists this week.

Let’s see if we can close that $27,000 gap today!
