This year I was asked to be an ambassador for Venus de Miles, a fundraiser for Greenhouse Scholars. Greenhouse Scholars is an organization which provides comprehensive personal and financial support to high-performing, under-resourced college students.

I am excited to pedal the 62 miles this Saturday. Not only is supporting a worthy cause a great reason to get on a bike, but Venus de Miles is also an awesome ride:

The event is known for its exceptional experience from start to end. In addition to rest stops with delicious food and drink, and an experienced crew providing mechanical and motivational support to riders, all participants are treated to a festive finish line celebration. A complimentary lunch, cocktails and beer, spa services, entertainment, and more create a true celebration of sisterhood. Participants can also get to know Scholars who benefit from the event.

There are two ways you can help this organization in furthering the education of women so that they can become the leaders of tomorrow.
