Trio biking across U.S. to end child sex abuse
On October - 4 - 2010
Last month, we were so inspired by three volunteers from Pedal for Prevention (www.pedalforprevention.com). These young men biked through Colorado and more importantly through Fort Collins. They are riding their bikes across the country from South Carolina to California to raise money to end child sexual abuse. They will ride 4,300 miles in approximately 85 days to raise awareness and funds that help support programs like the Stewards of Children adult training and Talking About Touching student training that the Larimer County Child Advocacy Center provides in our community.
