Help Christopher raise money

For participating in Ryder Hesjedal's Tour de Victoria presented by insurancebyhugo.com

My Story…

Thank you for considering this! After a one year hiatus we are back at it, raising money for Opportunity InternationaI (OI). Here are our top five reasons to get you on board: 1) OI is a micro-finance operation - they lend small amounts of money (typically a few hundred $'s) and provide business training to budding entrepreneurs in third world countries. 2) Those entrepreneurs have an amazing track record of repayment and because they pay interest on their loans, the effect of your donation just gets larger and larger with each repaid loan and new loan made. 3) Because OI is effectively a "bank", it gets to lever your donation, meaning every $1.00 they receive becomes $1.05 in the hands of an entrepreneur within a year. 4) We will match every donation $ for $ and you get a tax receipt! If you don't, I will personally hunt it down for you. 5) You enjoy seeing a 60ish couple "sweat it out" for a 100 km toil! Thanks for the push ($$$'s), Chris and Arleen
