Yelling out a massive THANK YOU to all who rode, shared, gave, and encouraged Team MPS at the @mdbride4rare this year! We're now just under $10,000 from reaching the $30,000 match, and donations are STILL being DOUBLED through June 30!!! All funds go directly to RESEARCH FOR A CURE! What do you say we each pitch in $50 in honor of our 50th anniversary this year?! (Which really results in $100 with this special opportunity!!! 🎉) To give, visit our website at mpssociety.org/donate-now/ and select Million Dollar Bike Ride as the designation. Visit our SmugMug album through the link in our bio for more scenes from the most fun day! 📸 #PennMedMDBR2024 #RareDisease #MPSML #NationalMPSSociety #CureSupportAdvocate #RareDiseaseResearch #MDBR #MDBR2024 #TeamMPS #HopeForMPS #BlastOffForACure #BetterTogether
