Dear [insert name],

I have signed up for the 7th Annual Revolution Ride, a cycling fundraiser which benefits participants in the Bay Area Outreach & Recreation Program (BORP). On September 26th, I will be riding [10, 25, 50, 65 or 100] miles on Sonoma County’s picturesque back roads along with BORP’s hand cyclists and visually impaired riders, who are also training and fundraising for the event.

I have agreed to raise [insert goal] in support of BORP’s sport and adventure programs.

BORP is a non-profit organization that improves the lives of youth and adults with physical disabilities through challenging sport, fitness and recreation programs. BORP’s programs help individuals with disabilities gain skills that lead to success in school, work, and life.

[Insert several (enthusiastic) sentences about your experiences with BORP and why you are so excited about participating in the Revolution and making an impact on the lives of people with physical disabilities.]

I hope you will support my efforts by making a tax-deductible donation of [insert amount]. To make a secure online donation, please select my name on the Revolution fundraising page at: http://www.regathon.com/revolution/sponsor-participant.htm. You can also send checks (with my name in the “Notes” line) payable to “Bay Area Outreach & Recreation Program” to:
BORP
600 Bancroft Way
Berkeley, CA 94710

If you would like to join me for the ride, or if you want to learn more about BORP, go to their website: www.borp.org and click on the “Revolution” link. If you want more information about my participation in the Revolution, please contact me at: [insert email] or [insert phone number]. You can also contact BORP directly at (510) 849-4663 or revolution@borp.org.

I hope you will join me in promoting healthy, active lifestyles for people with disabilities.  Together we can re-define disability!

Thank you,
[Your name]
