On April 26, I will be participating in Ride for a Reason 2025, a bike ride from Oakland to Sacramento, to raise funds for public education in Oakland and Alameda. My fundraising goal is $250, and I am asking for your help to reach it!
Ride for a Reason is more than a bike ride—it’s a local movement to support eleven public schools in Oakland and Alameda, working toward a collective fundraising goal of $200,000. As the parent of an Oakland Unified School District graduate (Peralta Elementary, Claremont Middle, Oakland Technical High School), I have witnessed the fruits of a good public education, and I care deeply about keeping California public schools strong and accessible for all students.
This year, Oakland Unified faces a serious funding crisis, and I am highly motivated to support my community’s school district and help ensure that every student has access to a high-quality, public K-12 education. This cause impacts all of us, as today’s students are the future of California.
Please consider making a gift of any amount to support my bike ride and this important cause. Your contribution will provide essential resources for these public schools, making a positive impact on the lives of many students.
Whether you give $10 or $100, your generosity will make a difference. Together, let’s keep California’s public education system excellent and free for all students.
Thank you!
