Ride Across Minnesota for Students

If you know me, you know that I like to do big things. It's a way to challenge my body and my mind and prove to myself and others that we are all capable of much more than we think. 

This summer, I will be doing an individual time trial across the state of Minnesota. And I'll be doing it as a fundraiser for students at St. Paul College. 

Would you join me by making a donation? 

Our goal of $5,000 would support the needs of 10 students at St. Paul College. 

The Ride

I will ride 190 miles. In one day. As fast as I can. I'll start in Gary, SD and end in Prescott, WI. I'll pick a day near June 21st with good weather for my ride across the state. This will be my farthest one day ride ever. 

The Cause

St. Paul College Students are eager to learn in-demand job skills. 65% are students of color. 61% are the first in their family to attend college. Others are retraining after years in the workforce. Their safety net is very thin.

Their hard work and your thoughtful gift propels them to a better life.

An education at St. Paul College gives students access to family-supporting jobs and careers that build wealth. More than 85% of students find jobs within one year of graduation. 

The money raised will go directly to Saint Paul College students through scholarships and the Emergency Fund (which provides stop-gap grants when students have a car, babysitting, housing or other emergency which might prevent them from continuing school).
