Sometimes, there’s no better way to start the day than with some good, old-fashioned publicity. That happened early this morning when Spectrum VP Amanda Sellers dropped by to ask me if I’d seen today’s WASHINGTON POST article mentioning the National Capital Tour de Cure that our firm is sponsoring. I had not, and still haven’t seen the print version, but reading the article online completely made my day! (I’m chairing the ride.)
Read the story of 38-year-old American Diabetes Association employee Sara Sklaroff, who committed herself to the fundraising ride for diabetes before she even learned to ride a bike!
Hopefully by Sunday, June 14, Sara’s courage and passion will have infected thousands of other Washington-area people with diabetes and their friends and family enough to register and ride in Tour de Cure.
If diabetes got the respect, attention and funding support that cancer does, maybe we’d all be closer to finding a cure. Please join or support Spectrum’s “Spokes Persons” Tour de Cure team.
