Portland Tour de Cure, 2010
On July 31st I participated in a cycling event called the Tour de Cure, which is a nationwide fundraising event for the American Diabetes Association (ADA). I work for a company called Novo Nordisk, a international leader in diabetes medicines, innovation and research and a team of fellow employees and I rode on behalf of the company in this event. As a team we raised over $1300 in donations for the ADA. That money will be used towards research and advocacy for the 23.6 million Americans living with diabetes (I think that's a striking fraction of the country who live with this devastating disease!). PowerBar generously donated bars, gels, and powdered drink formula to fuel our 100 mile road ride. My team of 3 fellow employees and I were very appreciative of the energy! It was a long, but great, ride! It was super cool to be a part of an event that was completely oriented around helping people who need it. Thank you to the ADA for organizing the event and thank you to PowerBar for supporting us.
