Happy Friday, Wheels Riders!
We find ourselves mid-match and deeply moved as we work toward fulfilling the Forever Martha Strong Match of $50,000 by May 15th ($20,000 is still on the table!). Our hearts are filled with gratitude for the incredible generosity of this match shared in honor of beloved Martha.
The match was beautifully announced at the May 1st kickoff gathering at Children’s Hospital Colorado—a heartfelt evening filled with love, laughter, and remembrance. Ned, Margaret, Ian, Sean, and Annie opened their hearts, sharing treasured memories of their daughter and sister, offering us all a glimpse into Martha’s vibrant, creative, and compassionate spirit, colored with a healthy dose of adventure and energy.
Through tears and a lot of laughter, we celebrated a life that continues to inspire. I personally want to recognize the Riedel family for the incredible bond they share and the love they radiate. Their strength and unity are a testament to the beautiful legacy Martha leaves behind.
The event was made even more special by the amazing food from Cinzzetti’s and the delightful wine from Carboy. And for those lucky enough to snag a tie-dye Martha Strong shirt—you truly walked away with a keepsake of love and strength. If you didn’t and would like to pre-order the next printing, click here!

Check out the memorial wall set up for Martha and let's all channel our inner Martha and strive to reach half as high as she did. Let’s keep this momentum going, together, and make the most of this powerful match by May 15th.
We know you can find $20,000 more!
