Wednesday morning, June 10th, Doug Ruddle, Suzanne Simmers and Jeff Sanders went to Teen Challenge, attended their chapel service, and presented them with the ThunderCares Racing for a Cause donation. A check for $2252.73.
It's sometimes difficult to find the inspiration to raise money for an organization with which you may be unfamiliar, but many of you did, and I wanted to say 'thank you!'. This place is well worth the effort! They do good work, they do it the right way, and their students have over an 80% success rate of leading productive lives after graduation.
Teen Challenge will be helping out at several local races this season, including Dragonfly this weekend. Look for them and say hello. I think you'll be impressed.
You can all be happy about the work you did in raising money and satisfied that it has gone for a good cause.
Thanks again for all your work.
Jeff Sanders
ThunderCares Committee
