Support Tour DaVita Move It

Thank you for your interest in sponsoring me for the 2020 Virtual Tour DaVita! Your support — whether moral, financial or both — means more than you know. I am so excited to be able to participate virtually, while doing something I love, regaining my strength,  and giving back to others in need!  After COVID hit our area hard, as I was leading my team through our new normal, I was taken down by a medical event that I had no risk factors for or family history of.  I am so grateful that I was able to come back with no visible deficits, and part of that was because of the cycling routine I had established. It was hard to be the patient instead of the nurse, and that drove me to want more for our patients and all those we can help. I had incredible support from so many, and a community on the bike that helped me return as well. When I saw the Tour was virtual this year I wanted to contribute and give back while healing myself. I committed to 400 miles from August until 10/4, completing 175 in August and again in September, with the last 50 being done between activities this weekend. I'm excited to do this along with all of you!  Virtual Tour DaVita is so much more than an event. It will be an amazing adventure and a physical challenge, but is also an extension of our day-to-day calling to “give life” to others. Bridge of Life (BOL), an independent 501(c)(3) public charity founded by DaVita Inc., is an international nonprofit organization working to strengthen health care globally through sustainable programs that prevent and treat chronic disease and currently to combat COVID-19 with its partners in vulnerable communities around the world. COVID-19 does not respect borders and will have a devastating impact on people in countries that have weak health systems and are less prepared to combat the disease. BOL supporters will help to provide lifesaving PPE, train dialysis clinicians on COVID-19 prevention and provide resources to educate community health workers and patients in countries like Haiti, Nigeria and Guatemala. If we can all do a little, then together we can make a big impact on our world. I’d appreciate your support — any amount will help!
