The first Bike ride for Hands Across the Water I did earlier this year was the most challenging yet rewarding thing I have ever done. For that reason, I had to sign up for the second time.

After seeing all the amazing work the Hands Across the Water do to help communities and kids that have been affected by the Boxing Day Tsunami it made me want to do as much as I can to help them. Our individual goals are to raise $5000 but I am going to push harder and try and raise more than I did last time around - $6000.

I am so thankful for everyone who has supported this cause and me in this life-changing experience.
